Say what you want about America.
We may have a shitty economy or government or anything else you can think of.
But the fact remains, we have foot ball, American Fucking Football. Ok, I’m done..

Ron Paul has made no secret the fact that he thought that the South was right in the Civil War. Here he is giving a speech in front of a giant Confederate Flag about why he believes the North was wrong in the Civil War and why the South was right.
Ron Paul is a neo-Confederate, and proud member of the Ludwig Von Mises Institute, which has been labeled as a neo-Confederate organization. In the video he claims that the North should have paid to buy slaves from southern slave owners to avoid the war, rather than the South renouncing slavery. Paul also fails to bring up the fact that it was the South that started the war by attacking the North in 1861.
Ron Paul was also was the only member of congress to vote against honoring the Civil Rights Act Of 1964 in on its 40th anniversary in 2004. Paul would also claim that he wouldn’t have voted for it at the time, putting him on the side of the racists in both the fight against slavery and the fight against Jim Crow segregation, the two defining struggles of Black people in America.
Several Ron Paul supporters have asked that the video be taken down, from the pro-Confederate channel, Patriot Review but Patriot Review believes that the video could help Paul win South Carolina. If they do take it down, Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs has downloaded a copy of the video. - NewsOne.com

Have different formalities when it comes to greetings and goodbyes, showing signs of respect to elders or your superiors.
But here in America, we do things a little differently. In New York especially.
Here in NYC, we only have two formalities: fuck and you.

If I could give some wise advice on this matter I would start by saying: I also have sleeping problems, mainly stemming from long work hours and stresses of as you said, the past and the future, that keep your mind racing. If I may recommend a method that works for me: when you lie down to sleep, try to focus your thoughts soloed on sleep, trying to relax, and your breathing, focus especially on your breathing. Then try to relax every part of your body, and at that point it might be alot easier for your to put your mind at ease and finally get some rest. Granted this doesn’t always work, but from time to time it helps me fall asleep.I have learned lately that the following is true:
- I never sleep anymore.
- Not sleeping leaves far too much time to think.
- Given time to think, my mind races either about the future or certain parts of the past.
- Thinking about the future leads to stress, which ultimately keeps me even more…
