Do you really need title of ownership documents to believe Americans own their own homes? No.
Do you really need bank statements to know Americans have savings? No.
Do you really need employment records to know Americans are not forced into slave labor? No.
Why? Because anybody with any common sense knows those things to be fact.

Of course, if you can show me to be wrong about any of those things, I will gladly admit so.

The irony...so true. nt Mnemosyne Mar 2014 #1
