Now, I quite like thrillers and conspiracy theory films, and can put up with a lot of rubbish.<br /><br />What made me turn it off and vow to return it straight back to the library was a bit early on. Naomi Watts's character is explaining that the bank is eeevvvvillll. And in doing so she uses the examples of "funding terrorism and aiding capital flight".<br /><br />FFS. Go copulate vigorously with yourself. I honestly don't know which option is worse: that they consider capital flight to be as bad as terrorism, or that they consider terrorism to be no more serious than capital flight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-30587250583240101852012-11-10T20:24:34.804-08:002012-11-10T20:24:34.804-08:00Well I'm Canadian too, at least 30 years away ...Well I'm Canadian too, at least 30 years away from retirement, and am looking forward to being able to afford a house in the US.

I won't ...Yeah.<br /><br />I won't visit the States.<br /><br />I won't invest in the States.<br /><br />Despite having ringfenced education dollars that would allow me to spend a week in the US most years, I go to other countries for conferences. It costs work and me around 4000$US a trip... so it is not small change. <br /><br />And I ain't gonna change those policies.Chrishttp://blog.pukeko.net.nznoreply@blogger.com
