[quote=Anonymous]I briefly dated a man who came as a refugee from El Salvador. He grew up in a hut, was illiterate at the age of eleven, and had lost his mother and two siblings to "voodoo". Decades later, he is an American citizen, he has a degree, a career, and owns two houses. His father is retired and living on a decent pension after working in maintenance. He complains. Bitterly. All the time. Not about American foreign policy in Latin America. Or anything important. He complains that women have too much freedom, that it's a crime to rape a woman who isn't a virgin, it's too cold, the mangos aren't fresh, and so on. Meanwhile, he's still a citizen of El Salvador and El Salvador is doing pretty well right now, and he could basically live like a king in El Salvador, while retaining his American citizenship. But for some reason he chooses to stay and rant. It doesn't bother me because he's not part of my life anymore. But I do find it baffling. [/quote]
