Why don't you write to your congressmen about all the demonstrations about the beef in Korea. I am sure they do not know what is going on, and they need to know how Koreans act.

They're aware of it, trust me......and Korea really can't do anything about it, unless they really want to jepeordize their entrance into the VWP and the ratification of the FTA

Quite honestly, I could care less about what the Koreans think of American Beef. American beef is cheap. Australian Beef is good. Japanese Beef is good. Argentinian beef is excellent. Korean beef is expensive, but no different. The reason all this hype is flying around is because the domestic cattle farmers here are worried they will lose out. That's why their beef is so expensive in the first place. Really, it's just beef. It's no different than American beef.

But again, I could care less about what these people think. They would think mad cow disease could be contracted from eating Cheerios if the government told them so.

Actually, their government is telling them the American beef is safe. It's certain politicians and others who are against their president and America telling them how bad the stuff is.

Ah, I remember Alyssa. We don't get to many female trolls on this board. That seems a form of acute nerdiness that usually only men possess.

Anyways, I hope you're still happily married, and still better than the rest of us.

American beef doesn't have as much antibiotics as Korean beef, that's one thing that's different. Also, there is very little chance of one of the cows ever being fed soju in any shape or form... that's a plus in my book

Alyssa's still around? I thought she swore off Dave's when her teacher training classes or whatever were finished. Actually I figured s/he was banned.

Do you really think U.S. congressmen will do anything about it? Yeah right, what could they do anyway? I think they have slightly bigger and more significant issues to deal with at the moment.

Dont you think the 38,000 US troops stationed here tell the people back home what is happening here,both on the streets and in the media.

These guys are protecting these korean clowns from themselves..how do you think they feel to be bombarded with anti USA rants 24/7 ?
Their families, friends and extended networks must stretch into millions. Add to this the discriminated against ripped off/cheated returning english teachers,networked thru millions of personal connections..Korea is SELF TERMINATING as a sensible country.
I think they are doing a marvelous job on themselves. Laughing

We are witnessing the begining of the end..the real start of Koreas demise...and slide into global ridicule.
China will deal with them after we leave,and korea will return to a
shanty pre-logic post-industrial dump .
They find this much more comfortable,and would rather not have us here "stealing" their women and having to learn english.
