Joe, I wasn't 'pissed' about the racial thing- just disappointed by it. I don't blame an entire race of any type for the actions of some or even many of their kind. I certainly don't choose to lump myself into the category of my Dutch ancestors that took part in the slave trade. As such, I'd call the folks you are talking about 'assholes', as its about their actions, not who their parents are. Now, the living conditions and sanitary issues you mentioned are illegal for us AND for them. REPORT IT. If you don't, it's like the guy that never votes bitching about what the President does wrong. If you know where your wife's job is headed, it's put up or shut up time. I would be interested to know more about this situation...the hard facts. If the ones you've given are accurate, there is certainly something amiss...much the way the 9/11 scum took flight lessons while NOT learning take offs and landings. If you think there's really something to it, passing it on to someone in law enforcement might get a ball rolling to investigate the money trail and so on ...never know what it might turn up. Worst case, you look a bit foolish, but the other way, you could prevent something pretty serious. At the moment tho, isn't the SELLER the real a-hole here? He can say 'no' regardless of the offer. He took the 'stupid American' route and gave in to money above all other consideration. I wonder what offer could buy the Statue of Liberty? And would we give a cut to the French? Laugh now....it's coming. >:( Anyway- best of luck, Joe. I know well the hard times, too. Lost my dad 3 years ago to lung cancer. Lost jobs to those that were far less qualified and motivated (good ol' politics). What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Keep your eyes on the good stuff that lies just past all this sh*t...it's there....and you'll get there.
