Should Motorbikes be allowed to drive on the sidewalk?
How true. I once stopped a motorbike riding on the sidewalk and the rider opened up his jacket. He was a policeman. -

Insurrectionist Dems seek to Keep Trump from Office.
It's not all of us. I'm a US veteran, so anyone who wishes to question my so-called "patriotism" can bite a rock. And yeah, a whole lot of my fellow countrymen believe in "US Exceptionalism." We're the "shining city on the hill." We're the "garden in the jungle." Actually all the US is now is Empire In Decline. The US has had it's day. Most of the US GDP is created out of "services." It creates very little that is tangible. China is the world leader in manufacturing, and as such, the US empire wants to now go to war to destroy it. Like all empires, it wants whats the resources of other countries and if other countries don't "bend a knee" and become vassal-states, then the US will take it forcefully. I'm anti-war and anti-empire and anti-colonialism. I'm pro-peace and pro-trade and pro-international-commerce. The US can't stand any of that. And with Trump coming into office, I expect that the US Exceptionalism trope to be beat to death for the next four years - he's already signaling the roll out of a new Monroe Doctrine policy. We'll, he did get into office by promising to get us out of foreign conflict, but time will tell about that. One thing about US vets. We tend to hold two competing ideals: We love our country for it's Constitutional freedoms and rights, but we are also some of its harsher critics when it comes to foreign policy. Why? Because we were the cannon fodder sent to foreign countries to "project power" and to enforce US foreign policy as flawed as it is. I am 100% for a defensive military in the US used to defense its borders and sovereignty; I'm also 100% against foreign adventurism in the name of US Exceptionalism and US corporate profits. A lot of the "Yanks" who carry on about US Exceptionalism never served a day in any of the US militaries. That says a lot. -

Introduction to Personal Income Tax in Thailand
If Thailand moved to world wide taxation, then there would still be allowances, deductions and exemptions available, that would probably mean that you paid nothing, or a token amount on €1300 a month. Dont worry about things that are not currently happening. -

Bypassing passport control
I used to bitch about it also, and gave up trying to use. What ever they did about 2 yrs ago as an upgrade to the system, has worked perfectly since. Though, if like myself and gave up in the past, might want to give it another try. Last one I submitted, took less the 24 hrs to approve, and a pleasant surprise.
