More like a total waste of our tax money to me.

Of course, Feds here means the federal government; the government of the United States of America.
Maybe it is a case of quid pro quo or a personsl favor to a friend or a party donor.

美國到底殺了多少無辜的老百姓？ April 20, 2016

對美國這個蠻不講理的帝國來說，無辜老百姓的傷亡只不過是戰爭的犧牲品。這是無可避免的。想當然而。
你可曾想過為什麼美國每年的國防軍費預算幾乎是全球軍費的一半？
你可曾想過美國為什麼在世界上許多國家和角落都有它的軍事基地？
你可曾想過美國為什麼有這麽多的航空母艦在世界各地備戰巡邏？
是為了扮演世界警察的角色，維持世界和平嗎？是為了做散財童子刺激其他國家的經濟嗎？是為了解決世界上的紛爭進而保護地球上老百姓的生命安全嗎？
不是。絕對不是。
美國的強大軍事裝備是用來維護美國的霸權，保護美國的國家利益進而鞏固美元的世界儲備貨幣的地位。簡單來說，美國的武器是用來保衛美國商業帝國的地位和利益的。
而戰爭是美國慣用的手段。對美國來說，那些死在炮火下的老百姓只不過是戰爭中無法避免的損失罷了。再說，美國的政客，國防部長和總統也沒有因為發動戰爭而受到世界的譴責。美國我行我素，蠻不講理。世界上的其他弱小國家也只有忍氣吞聲求救無門了。
不知道美國在二次世界大戰以後，在韓國，越南，阿富汗，巴基斯坦，伊拉克，利比亞，敘利亞，利比亞和也門殺死了多少無辜的老百姓。

這是不是習近平給蔡英文上臺的見面禮呢？

The cost to you and I will go up and it will go up even more later. There is simply no other way.
I am not surprised. Are you?
Obama and Democrats lied to the Americans with faulty math but the low information voterstook the bait and this is what we get.
Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid promised Americans that ACA will be budget neutral in the first 10 years and achieve savings longer term.
They said that ACA will:
Lower Insurance premium,
Allow you to keep your doctor,
Let you keep your Insurance company,
Be more efficiency,
Be more competitive in the market place, and
Provide better care.
Unfortunately, none of this is true.
When you are paying more for your health insurance, can you sue Obama, Pelosi and Reid for compensation because they lied to Americans?
No.
Can you sue Republican leaders for damage because they were incompetent to defend tax payers’ rights?
No.
You just have to eat it and watch national debt go up and up with no end in sight.

Harper‘s Ferry. 2/3 of the town is owned by the U.S. National Park Services. 有點像是一個鳥不生蛋的地方。到此一遊吧。

台灣也有進步的一面 April 17, 2016

我在上小學的時候，體罰是家常便飯。只要上課吵鬧，家庭作業沒做完，背書背不出來，考試成績不理想，那就是一頓打。
那些調皮，愛玩，粗心又常常犯錯的小孩更是跟板子結了不解之緣。經常在課堂前面罰站，伸手捱打。輕則手心一板。重則手心手背各一大板。嚴重的那更是上下其手，身上到處都有板子侍候著。
四十年過了，台灣的社會還是有點進步的。
至少在體罰這方面，台灣比以前文明了點。
台灣的教研機構真的這麽黑嗎？ April 17, 2016

這是香港城市大學校長郭位寫給台灣中央研究院的一封公開信。
難道他寫的《惡意抹黑，政治陰謀，沒有專業道德，只問派系立場》是真的嗎？他的公開信擺明了是要丟台灣的臉嘛。
羞！
嗯，現任的中研《怨》院長不是因為貪婪無厭在美國躲起來了嗎？嗯，沒問題躲起來幹嘛，怕回台灣以後被抓起來嗎？希望台灣的調查局能查個水落石出，把該坐牢的都關起來。關的越久越好。
這種下三濫的中研《怨》怎麼做得出什麼東西呢？
讓我們等著看台灣中研《怨》的回答和調查局的檢查結果吧！

Cheap tuition to State colleges. Financial aids. Free food for their kids. Plenty of cash paying jobs without paying taxes.
Now this:
No wonder, wall or no wall, they come to the U.S. by the hundreds everyday.
What’s not to like about all this free stuff thanks to America tax dollars from you and I.
Chinese Korean Restaurant, Centerville VA April 9, 2016

Not sure what this restaurant was called but judging by the number of customers it had when we stopped by, it must be a very popular restaurant among the local Korean people. A friend of mine told me about Chinese Korean food and I have tried it a few times before. It was actually very good.
I was told that the sweet and sour pork is a dish that one has to try and the other one is the Korean version 炸醬麪。And those were the two dishes we tried.
The prices wrre surprisingly reasonable and the portions were huge. We also ordered a seafood noidle soup because itspicture was too good on the menu board to pass by.
Since our first visit, we went back again to have another treat of the sweet and sour pork and 炸醬麪。We have since found out that the Korean grocery store a few doors down also has the deep fried pork and 炸醬麪。We will try them next time.
