And as we all know, what they do in the USA one year, we will be imitating over here five years later if we’re not careful.

mentally figuring out if they have enough
to pay for the children’s gifts
and next month’s rent

Nothing like being politically correct and protecting people’s rights, eh?!
Don’t worry, it won’t happen, we’ll be under Sharia law. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7234870.stm
One or two things are interesting though. Their ideas on interest and a cooling off period for marriage.
Now there’s an idea.
