It is paradise for tax lovers. Also perfect for worrying about next door EU countries F'ing up so that all EU countries has to bail them out.
Another way of taxation.

Moral hazard....

I've been killing it selling pipe dream catchers to French buyers on my Etsy account.

That is clever and funny as hell.

If you have a pipe dream catcher, I'm interested buying one, but only if it helps European citizens who are at risk.

So wrongly right

Well the stupid frogs had the opportunity to pick Le Pen over Macron so...

I would normally wholeheartedly agree with that sentiment. But then I stop to think about who some voters in this country choose and reality takes a bit bite outta my ass.

A sliver of a silver lining is that, apparently, many Obama voters turned and voted for Trump. He won after all. And he lost way fewer House and Senate seats in the mid terms than the any POTUS in what, the last hundred years or so?
Trump isn't my saviour but it does show some hope that we are moving in the right direction? Maybe? Wishful thinking on my part, I know. (Sorry to derail)

Coming to America!
The way to get people out of their cars and onto public transportation, bikes, walking, or at least into electric vehicles.
Uh-huh, I read it on the internet, so it must be true?

Cheap suppressors with no paperwork and abundant nuclear power are at least two things they did right over there.

If you ever want to see a lefty go full REEEEEE, drop those nuggets into a conversation with them next time they're extolling the virtues of the Europeans.

If you hunt there without a suppressor, you are considered a rude bastard. Here you have to get permission from the "Government". I like the statement below! (except the nuclear part)
