    Why come here and spend your hard earned money in a country like this one? 
    You have the option to leave if you hate it here so bad. I hear El Salvador is nice this time of year. lol

    Yah, we relocated a trip we were doing to Houston to see friends and catch Metallica to go to Toronto for a different concert.  It's so weird, because I've never thought twice about hopping the border.  Spend my whole life hopping over to Seattle for concerts and what not.  Never batted an eye.

    I do hope things get better down there, but I'll take a timeout and explore within my own country or maybe go to ones I've never been to before.   It's going to take willpower the next time there's a show or event in Seattle I really want to see.

    I did read that US tourism to my province (BC) is also down, so it's impacting the other way too (only certain tourism stuff though, as there's an increase in domestic and international tourism from non-US countries).

    One of the nights I stayed in Vegas for U2 at Sphere the resort fee was higher than the room rate for the night.

    The recent Vegas business model of charge top dollar for everything is a slippery slope.

    If only we had had a dem party and a candidate that promised to bring back manufacturing and foreign investment maybe we would have won in 2024. Damn you Hal! Stolen from the Brandon shadow government:

    Within hours of taking office in January, President Donald Trump boasted about attracting $3 trillion in new corporate investments to the United States. Since then, Trump has said the investments have swelled to $14 trillion, or roughly half of the nation's annual gross domestic product.


    As of July 2, the website listed more than $2.6 trillion in U.S. investments, well short of the $14 trillion Trump boasts about.

    But a Reuters review found that just under half of the claimed spending on the website - totaling more than $1.3 trillion - originated under former President Joe Biden or represented routine spending repackaged to promote domestic investments.

    At least eight of the projects touted by the White House had sought or secured critical local incentive packages before Trump took office while at least a half dozen other projects had already been announced by local officials or the companies themselves, Reuters found.

    Two of the Trump Effect projects were aided by Biden’s legislative efforts to boost domestic manufacturing, the review found.

    Once again proof that reading comprehension is not a strong suit among the maga sycophants. 

    Also suggesting that someone would want to go to El Salvador where people are disappearing to, and where they are abused and tortured, as if that's a funny or clever statement.  Classic MAGA insecurity and weakness disguised as bravado.
