Of course the USA actually carries all the stigmata of a third world country. It has the rich elite and it has the huge population living in abject poverty in shanty towns - I've seen them, unfortunately. As for GB being a near-third world country, as tiny as we are we have the world's fourth biggest economy, so no, I really don't think so. Of course you are right in a way about the poodle thing. Tony B. Liar is GWB's poodle, but that certainly doesn't go for the rest of us. d _____________________________ http://www.pearce.uk.com
