    Very interesting.
    Myself believe that anybody no matter of their wealth or lack of should have privacy if they so desire.

    If one doesn't want their naked cat picture to be seen by many then don't put it on line.
    If I had the wealth of Zuckerberg I would buy the State of Utah and have a small dwelling built by people that had no idea who I was.

    The only way you could find my house would be the huge communication tower and several Ma Deuces in case of varmints.

    In days gone by, a handshake and your word was your bond, but in today's impersonal world, one would rather have a piece of paper and a lawyer to hide behind.

    This world has huge problems,unfortunately
    More than 2 million people in my country don't work.Just can't imagine that!
    Of course,some things are in a high level level,for example,some diseases have disappeared.Despite that,we live in a critical moment.
    "Never ever have I felt so low
    When you gonna take me out of this black hole?
    Never ever have I felt so sad
    The way I'm feeling yeah,you got me feeling really bad"-Never Ever,All Saints,1997
    This song has this issue described well (the moments we live right now)

    When will this bad thing finish? When will we have happiness again? When will racists stop being racists? Questions that don't have an answer.Let's remember,no one is born racist.Anyway,have a happy day and try to do everything you can to help someone.You'll get a reward for doing it.If not now,then tomorrow.

    Yeah, Greece has a big problem and I think it is in great part self inflicted. And now the new government bashes the people from whom they want more money. I don't think the tax payers of the other countries will continue to support that and Greece will be left to it's own devices. But maybe that would be better at the end.

    Yes,the problem is mostly economical. We can't do much these days. In the ancient times,they had a strong nationality.Democracy came to the other countries by them.It's the fairest way for someone to govern a country.They had created the Olympic Games which are celebrated every 4 years.I can't say more.Sometime Greece was a developed country.Then it became a developing one and now it is a third-world country (you know,like the African and/or some Asian ones).What do we have right now? Someone will hardly get enough money to live on.Let me say a good afternoon for you and good night (since your time is GMT -05.00 almost,mine is GMT +02.00,so we have seven hours later than you)
