To be clear, I have nothing against agents or the people that use them.
I've never used an agent but I like that's it's an option in case of a desperate situation.
I'm talking of course about how most clients use the agents -- to get extensions WITHOUT financially qualifying.
Obviously this doesn't apply to the small number of people that are complying but just need convenience.
Anyway IF the authorities actually believe that MO MONEY means NO CRIMS, then surely their very first target would be these agents and the people that use them where people everyday are getting extensions showing NO MONEY.
Yet not a peep about that!
Something is very rotten.
Don't tell me they don't know what's going on with the agents.
That would be an insult to their intellegence.
But I can't for the life of me understand what's the real motivation to basically punish the expats that have been qualifying following all the rules to the letter.
Yeah the same isolationist fascist "America First" types were against U.S. involvement in WW2. Many were openly supportive of Hitler the same way many of these Magadonian types are supportive of Putin.
Thankfully, such anti American, anti democracy traitors aren't the majority.
But the tragic part is that Putin or whoever replaces him is set on keeping up their genocidal war until the 2024 U.S. election because they know if Trump or a similar maga type wins, support for Ukraine will dry up.

He's obviously a monster but the feds are still living in fear of him and his well armed cult followers and treating him with kid gloves.
They ought to warn, one more violence inciting "truth" and we're locking him up and then when he does that, which he will, follow through!
I took a big exploratory trip there years ago. My feeling at the end of it was that I COULD live there (picking the specific location with care) but that I didn't particularly WANT to. So kind of a backup.
I still have a list of locations there I am interested in checking out.
Before I moved to to Thailand I knew a number of Filipino immigrants in the U.S. Friendly, absolutely. The ones I knew seemed burdened with Catholic guilt. My feeling was that their English speaking ability gives us the DELUSION that they think like westerners when in reality their culture is very very different. We think we get them. I seriously doubt that.
As least with Thais westerners generally are fully aware of how different they are.
You don't need an excuse.
I'm interested in the politics of numerous countries.
Namely: the U.S. obviously, Thailand, China, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, U.K., Phillipines, India, Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Iran.
