Why would I call you names? You're not the first person by any means to makes misinformed statements? My pension as a Gov't employee was established a good 10 years before Gov't employees became Unionized. My fault finding with the Union has nothing whatever to do with pensions. My main bitch was that I had to compete for a wage based on Seniority, not ability and performance. I was receiving the same wage as a guy who was sitting in the truck half the working day playing cards, while the rest of us were working. My pension is based on MY contributions to the plan. Why do you persist in expounding on things you know absolutely nothing about? Tell me, EXACTLY what were you doing in 1963?
Anyway your PUTZY statements are interesting for the entertainment value.No worries, Corduroy, BULL SHIT never did stand up too well.....................first rain kind of puts it back to its own level.
You make interesting points, Corduroy- some of which bolster points I've made. (Although you and I are mostly at logger heads, I still find you one of the sensible and intelligent minds on the forum. I have absolutely no doubt of the correctness of what you say about underpaid workers being pleasant and obliging for ulterior motives. I think that alludes to a good quality more than a poor quality. I fully agree that some of them have been "dealt a poor hand", but they've found a way of turning a seemingly hopeless situation into a livelihood. Contrast that with disgruntled workers in our own country who bring their own misery into the work place and don't serve anybody!
We could get into more detail about this, but my point is that you can't use hospitality workers as evidence that a people are hospitable. Hospitality workers aren't necessarily hospitable by choice. It's their job.
A lot of thinkers and writers have tried to come up with pithy statements about how to judge a society.
They say you can judge a society by how it treats its:
poor
helpless
prisoners
children
animals
Whatever it is (I'm sure some people just lost their minds reading "animals") no one ever says you can judge a society by how it treats its tourists. But maybe you're on to something.

Again you raise some good points, BUT many of the people I found possessing those traits were not just employees but also proprietors.
Who in his right mind doesn't want to see his business thrive? Americans (in my experience) are just better than Canadians in knowing when to spend a dollar now in exchange for prosperity later. I've seen it a hundred times. People have been known to do things without having ulterior motives. The employees I've mentioned have the wisdom to want to see their employer's business success (of course it all boils down to their job security)
Yeah, so it's not proof that Americans are good people. It might show that they have the sense to make do in the terrible position they are in, but they don't seem to have the sense to change the situation. But we aren't talking about sense.
People earning $7 or $8 an hour don't have the ability to change much, be they good, bad or indifferent.
One of the measures of a good person might be their ability and desire to make people feel better!
What are you talking about? What "account"? Who are they paying? Who do they owe to? Do you think that the NATO allies owe the Yanks cash and that they're going to "pay up" with them?
No they don't and no they're not. Trump, as usual, is full of shyte.
JFK appointed his brother, RFK, as attorney general, and both were assassinated. Wow.
Notice when Trump pushed aside the Montenegro PM, that he struck a very classic Mussolini type pose. It has been suggested that Trump should be called the Douche.
