    USA is the world's largest oil producer, has been since 2018. Flying off half cocked lacking facts seems to be a deranged Trump syndrome.... we use more, produce more and export more than any other country. Google it

     

    But more drilling permits don’t appear to be needed. That’s because there are more than 6,000 approved permits for oil and gas companies to drill on federal lands that are available but sitting idle and not being used,

    Your absurd lack of interest in reality is dangerous, all the bs about Biden "killing off jobs"

    Jeez, I don't want to say willfully ignorant, but that is the case here

    Big right wing mouth, talk a lot know nothing.

    Now you are arguing just for the sake of arguing to justify your love of terrorists and criminals and further spew your vicious anti American bile. Here, let me make it easy for you:

     

    Tourists are useful.

    Immigrants are Useful.

    Illegal aliens are prima facie criminals and are not useful. They are criminals. They indicate, by their very appearance on our shores, the intent to violate the law. They demonstrate that our laws mean  nothing, and that their personal desires outweigh obedience to the law. They have indicated their willingness to risk their own lives to commit a crime here, it would not be a stretch to say they would kill to stay, would it?

     

    I bet you approve of tipping off criminal illegal aliens to ICE raids

     

    The depth of your loathing for the USA is astonishing.

    Ignorance is bliss

    Not heard of Indians being called terrorists, or heard of them being rounded up and detained as the poster implied.

     

    Trump has put the gangs & cartels on the terrorist list, so that includes any members of those organisations.

    Are you defending gang and cartel members or those that entered the US illegally?

    Are most of these people already detailed in the US after breaking the law?

    Just answer the question.

    In 20 years, I've never seen the term "nuad Thai," used anywhere! So I dont see any danger of that being misrepresented. Every shop I have ever seen or used just states "Thai massage" where from my experience, you're twisted like a pretzel with absolutely no thought or consideration given to contraindications, general health questions, etc. Probably shown what to do by the girl in the next cubicle when it's quiet. Zero actual knowledge of anatomy and physiology in most places.

    There may well be "legitimate" and correctly trained ones out there, but I suggest they are few and far between compared to the "happy ending" variety.

    Guess it depends on where you live.

    Can the under 50 year old wife and 3 year old son apply for Non-O Dependent Visas to accompany a Retired Non-O?

    I ask because there are TWO NON-O Visas that seem to apply.

     

    One is called FOR PROVIDING SUPPORT TO OR BEING A DEPENDANT OF A PERSON WHO HAVING RESIDENCY IN THAILAND (NON-O)

    And seems to require a work permit:

     

    The other is called FOR PROVIDING SUPPORT TO OR BEING A DEPENDANT OF A THAI CITIZEN (SPOUSE VISA) (NON-O) OR PERSON HAVING RESIDENCY IN THAILAND... a two pager that doesn't have a work permit requirement but does have an income/saving requirement (40k/400k).

     

    It seems as a Retired Non-O, the second one applies and the wife needs to have a bank account with 400k THB in her name from a foreign account in her name. (Or 40k THB monthly income stream).

     

    Am I reading that right?

    How about the 3 year old son?

    Anyone have recent experience with this kind of visa?

    Wrong.

     

    Married to a Thai; You need 400 k or an income of 45.000-- per year.

    "The Pentagon was scheduled on Friday to brief Elon Musk on the U.S. military’s plan for any war that might break out with China, two U.S. officials said on Thursday."

     

    I'll link to the story since OP didn't.  And no, no one in their right freaking mind, thinks this is a good idea.

     

    https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/us/politics/musk-pentagon-briefing-china-war-plan.html?unlocked_article_code=1.5k4.SRAZ.aIZGK_LvUkAE&smid=nytcore-android-share

    Thanks for the link. Since AN changed the linking thing it does not work for me. And it also does not seem to work for you because I learned that a link is something one can click on and be directed to that certain information.
