It is a good place to make money tax free...there are some just north of you making lousy money...but at least it is tax free...that and its not so safe. Do you ever wonder where some of the fighters heading into Iraq come from..or where maybe there funds come from?

I would rather not support their cause....but that is just me.


Ok my friend, but you did use a Hollywood movie as a reference correct?
as far as what you see on the street being a reality or not that applies to anywhere ex. Living in Kingwood if a drug deal is going on in Dowtown its happening in your city but dosent affect you directly, do you really care?
I agree it is NOT for everyone...But I will take offense to the insinuation that my father or my self being in this country in some way counts as funding of terrorism...Who are the BIGGEST consumers of OIL world wide?! Its not just YOU its everyone in our oil dependant nation...My point is nothing is rose colored anywhere you go...every place has its good's and bad's...Keep watching your CNN
