I'd rather get them caught up, then they can afford their own travel when they have a decent job. Think about that.
Let's not forget that many people don't have the cash to buy trinkets and other tourist items all day, either. Gov't funded plane tickets, room and board, AND locally made gold necklaces? Sign me up...sheesh.
One more thing - you really think the ones that make the decisions will voluntarily decide to take a cut in pay so some ghetto kid can smoke weed in holland? Ha.

travel is not about buying trinkets and crap. Its about seeing how other people live and realizing how much we as Americans really have. The poorest American has more than some regular everyday people in other countries. Iīm not talking about Europe either. And no, I donīt expect politicians to voluntarily take a pay cut, for ANY reason.
Iīm sorry you didnīt quite understand the point of the thread. You must have gone to school in Louisiana.
