Or it could be a non politically affiliated survey that's checking on something no one else is looking into. It's not specified, so we can't go making random assumptions about it.

I've explained my reasons before. If you don't agree, there's nothing more to say about it.

You want facts....ask Europe how the tourism industry has been for them has been since 9/11......they are what the french would call sans americans......and they can all go fuck themselves and I will tell that to my Greek brethren when I go there for 3 weeks this summer.



This isn't about American tourists in Europe. This is about foreign tourists either not being willing or able to come to the US, and not spending money here in the US that American citizens need to make a living, all on account of our visa policies. Or foreign investors not investing in American businesses.

You may not care about the rest of the world, but I figured you'd at least care about your fellow citizens who may depend on changes to our visa policies to either make a living or improve the entire country's economy.

You own a restaurant, right? Imagine if one of our travel or traffic regulations or whatever prevented customers from coming to your restaurant or ordering from it. Wouldn't you need those regulations changed in order to stay in business?
