Oh wow, that's just silly. You're talking about immegrants from about 400 years ago. They were colonialists exploiting a "virgin" land for profit. This has nothing to do with contemporary entrepreneurship, for all intent

In the area, I agree. But Netanyahu chose to spurn democratic European allies and allign Israel with Hungary and Poland. Basically he made western Europe an enemy of Israel because he chose settlements over a peace process, to alleviate th

You go to the bank leverage your amazing portfolio, now you have real money. And when everything comes crushing down, you're too big to fall, so the govt/banks bail you out. Amazing system we got.
