Obviously, you never made the transition to be AMERICAN.

A Russian native would consider you American.

I feel sorry for you. :cry:

You are now a man WITHOUT a COUNTRY.

But you said you consider yourself a Russian.

It matter NOT what the passport says.

It matters what your HEART says.

You are not AMERICAN.

There is nothing wrong with your feelings : we are all humans . As long as you know what is right and what is wrong and also treat all humans equally you are a good person ....this is my opinion .

Ukraine is strong! lol, great scene from Seinfeld

Isn't the Ukrainian government really corrupt? I remember reading a piece where it said like George Soros practically 'owns' the government. He bought a seat in it.

That is garbage. People made off like bandits in the real estate markets, those who weren't idiots. The growth of the GDP has never been in a decline. And, home ownership is at its highest point ever. The vast majority of Americans happy with their lives as according to Gallup.

I would have to agree with that. People around me are having tougher times now too.

Company lay-offs. Chrysler just shut down part of its plant here because people aren't buying the cars. They let over 2,000 go. Construction workers have less work. Homes are in foreclosure.
Homes are not selling.

Gas prices and food prices have increased terribly. Air travel costs are high. Utility prices have increased. Even the hospital where my brother works has stopped all over-time. He's in KY, btw. Anheuser Busch sold out here. If they didn't, they would have laying people off anyway.

Yes, people have less money in their pockets now.
People had it better financially when Clinton was in office.

There is more but that would have taken a page to type.
