Since I couldn't find the thread where we were discussing the royal wedding, I decided to start a new one.


WASHINGTON: It has emerged that, Prince Williams and his fiancee Kate Middleton's royal wedding could lead to potential loss of Britain's economy by 50 billion dollars.

When all the people are celebrating, they're not working. And because the wedding holiday falls between two long holiday weekends in England, you can take 11 days off by burning only three days of vacation time.

This is exactly the reason why the founding fathers banned royalty in this country.

You do realize the average European is more productive then the average American while working both less hours a day and days a year right?

I thought American worker productivity was among the highest, and usually is the highest, in the entire world?

If you compare "working American" to "working <insert European country here>" then you are probably correct.

Unfortunately, America has a large segment of "less than ambitious"...

I would rather they were dissolved and their wealth distributed to the country.
Literally dissolved.

I don't see why they are making such a big deal about this in the US, how many people actually give a fuck here?

Quite a few, apparently. That hole in the GDP due to the day off next friday is mostly covered by the expected additional income from the Yanks and the Japs due to visit to watch the wedding procession go past.

There were other reasons too. The main thing, as everybody knows, was to get rid of the right of prima nocta. But another important reason why we ban royalty in this country is to keep them from wrecking our economy.

People care about it here in the U.S. because the British Monarchy is the only connection most Americans have to fantasy and myth.

Feel free to source a quote from one of the Founding Fathers.

Are you saying you are for the right of prima nocta, Parkbandit? I'm sure ClydeR shares my deep disappointment, as does the greatest living American actor Mel Gibson, who unlike our so-called President was not born in another country.

That has WB levels of stupidity to it. Don't be an idiot.

You and ClydeR share a great deal of things... it's almost like he's your normal twin.
