Again, brain dead diatribes, without any fact checking. Giving away trillions in covid relief without asking anything in return was the dumbest thing a president has done since Watergate. The annual inflation rates for dozens and dozens of goods routinely purchased by American households - including food - were already at their highest levels in a decade before Biden entered the White House early last year.

That's in large part because of the COVID-19 relief spending enacted under Republican Donald Trump's administration with overwhelming Republican support in the Senate. It exceeds what Democrats have allocated so far by roughly $1 trillion.

That money kept household balance sheets intact during the crisis and allowed consumers to keep spending despite double-digit unemployment. Moreover, household savings rocketed to unprecedented levels, providing tinder for more spending on activities like dining out and travel once those became widely available again.

This entire inflationary cycle was started with Trump's insane and unhinged trade war with China.

Very hard to get a visa for Thai GF. Not impossible. But difficult. Alot easier to wait until after you are married. I tried for years. After we were married it was easy.

@Mary ******
not always the case. For some reason, they are higher sometimes, direct. I do both. Typically have found Agoda service to be good. If not a bit rigid.

Very simple. Most hospitals offer the international yellow vaccine book for 50 baht.

That is a re-entry stamp. Good for one return to Thailand. Nothing else required for immigration.
