On Anti-Arab Mass Emails

Seriously, stop. So the Arabs are rich.

You are American.

You force child slaves to work 12+ hours a day in sweat shops to give you shoes. You build oil wells and mines across the globe, while leaving maybe 20% of the profits in the hands of the nation you're taking from. You refuse to pay a decent price for imported food. You pump more pollutants into the air than any other country, talk about forcing the developing world to meet environmental standards because of the "unfair economic advantage" they have by not having to enviro, yet refuse to join any international cooperative treaty to end the global warming threat. You talk about some Arab sheik's Versailles in the desert, with his car made out of silver, and fail to mention how the richest guy in the entire world is American.

If you're one of those people who are complaining about $2.75 a gallon, stop, because oil might just be the one product you're paying fair market value for.
