That is an interesting one, I lived in the USA for nearly 6 years first on
a
working visa then as a permanent resident with a green card. I had no
right
to vote even for the local selectmen, therefore I had no representation,
didn't stop both the state and federal governments from taxing me though.
True, but a substatially different situation.
I am not disputing that, it is the hypocracy of the situation that I am"keithr" <keithr@nowhere.com.au> wrote in message

Frankly, all that info was readily available before you came to the US. By
remaining in the US you agree to obey US laws. That is a contact on your
part.
AFAIK, they were British citizens at the time, therefore subject to BritishThe colonists on the other hand made no such contract.
A permanent resident in Australia, even Americans, have far more rights thanAs far as paying taxes, you were recieving services, if nothing else roads
to drive on.
I wouldn't have any interest in giving even permanent residents the right
to vote. Shit, at least you CAN own property her. Many countries I have
been
I can't even own proerty there.
I have to go to the US again in October, not something that I look forward
to, waiting probably 45 minutes in line to be faced with the most
unfriendly, unhelpful immigration officials that I have ever had the
misfortune to encounter (and that includes having visited such places as
communist China in the old days) being fingerprinted and photographed for
the umpteenth time. The US is the only country that I have visited that
finds it necessary to arm their immigration officials, I am not sure what
they are scared of.

The wait wouldn't be that long if they didn't keep finding enough
illegal crap, to justify their operating budget.

Immigration officials don't find illegal crap, that is customs and they, by
comparison, are quite easy to get along with.

I dunno about keeping up, It might be an idea to keep on subject, but
it's a sure sign your loosing when you change the subject.
As for the British Rajah, and what they did or didn't do. Who really cares,
it just happens to have happened years ago, when none of you lot where
there to correct all there mistakes. but you lot push on, with your
Commonwealth dreams, of the "Sun never sets on the Empire"
What 'black Pommy problem' ?Is it any wonder people like Phillie, survive, prosper, and continue to
insult people, When the main aggressor, righter of wrong's, goes of on a
tangent about nothing in particular, Why don't we discuses the black Pommy
problem, and Harold Wilson's part in the plot. Or his Mac and pipe.
Frankly, when it comes down to it, collectively, you lot couldn't make a
bed, or lie straight on it. For that matter.

At its peak I believe there were 30,000 British soldiers in India at a
time
when the population was 10,000 times as many. I can't see how the
'jackboot'
idea holds water.
