96% of Americans have only 1 or 2 internet providers. For now. That will get worse since the American government has no incentive to protect consumers. Expect even less competition in future. Slower speeds and higher prices than the best of the rest of the world.
… By 1991, a voluptuous concrete woman towered five stories over the airport-adjacent ravine where Garcia lived. He named her “Tijuana III Millennium,” but locals soon began referring to the lady-house as “La Mona,” or “the doll.”

Garcia has moved into another self-built, woman-shaped house in Puerto Nuevo called La Sirena. In 2012 he opened a French restaurant inside her stomach.
If you value freedom, including religious freedom, you should support the separation of Church & State.
The government should have no involvement in your religion as they should have no involvement in your sex life. So long as you abide by the secular laws of the land.

The kind constantly quoting the Pledge of Allegiance.
The Pledge of Allegiance of the United States is an expression of fealty to the federal flag and the republic of the United States of America, originally composed by Francis Bellamy in 1892 and formally adopted by Congress as the pledge in 1942.
The official name of The Pledge of Allegiance was adopted in 1945. The last change in language came on Flag Day 1954 when the words “under God” were added.
Here’s the original version (1892) of the start of the pledge:
“I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the republic for which it stands, one nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”
