Howdy sir dandays! But did you always plan on coming back to the States are did you realize that after you've done all this traveling? Yes I am very aware about the lack of free speech in Europe and actually got into it with Steemians from Europe who think they are totally free! lol.

I agree that in many areas the U.S. is the biggest consumers in the world. We buy everything and if we don't have the money we figure out how to buy it anyway. lol.

I like conveniences too. Being out in the country I miss them alot. lol. I got spoiled.
Thanks for this great explanation, it makes total sense now!
