Only native Briton, Anglo-Saxon (fathers side) and Norman (mothers side) genes found.

Yes. Normans also know as Norsemans. Hehe:)

More like northern French genes, from area conquered by the Norsemen.

Yes. From Normandy, not France at the time.
William the Conqueror descended from Vikings and were Duke of Normandy since 1035 as William II.

Repeal of ACA without adequate cover for all US citizens might be against international law
Office of the High Commisioner UN Human Rights letter - pdf

Page 4 and Universal Declaration of Human Rights plus what follows is interesting.

Specifically, Puras writes that Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights “establishes everyone’s right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being, including food, medical care and necessary social services.” He notes that Article 5(e) of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, ratified by the United States in 1994, calls on states to “guarantee the right of everyone,” including “the rights to public health, medical care, social security and social services” without regard to race or color.

The special rapporteur also cites Article 12 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, under which states have “the core obligation to ensure the right of access to health facilities, goods and services on a non-discriminatory basis, especially for vulnerable or marginalized groups.” The agreement was signed but not ratified by the United States, which is still “obliged to refrain from acts that would defeat the covenant’s object or purpose, in conformity with Article 18 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties.”

Viking's: Although they were also farmers. Were... :) :) :) :)

Actually the word Viking is an occuption:)
Still are!

The runic inscriptions suggest that a viking was a man who left his homeland for adventure and profit abroad, with the implication that he planned to return home with his newly won fortune and fame. The word existed in both a noun form (víkingr, the person traveling for adventure) and a verb form (víking, to travel or participate in one of these adventures).

Well Trump is going to try and deliver the biggest tax cut and the largest tax reform in the history of our country, but that "great wall" may never get built as there's opposition to it from both sides.

Is he heading for another failure?

Or is he just going to increase that staggering national dept?

Cheers.

Much more than just that, income inequality will also get a big boost also due to the so called trickle down effect.

No, it is so the Trump Family businesses taxes can be all moved into the new 15% business tax class, so he can become richer, and then even richer when his accountants apply all the loopholes that all big businesses employ.

Why do you think he hasn't published his tax returns.

And the Democrat/Republican/Washington Ruling Class proposition(s) to increase the GDP by 3% a year?

World demand now is a major factor in GDP.

BTW: Trump's doubling of the Marriage Deduction and Dependant Deduction. May place thousands of extra dollars in the people's pockets.

Yes it will but the ensuing inflation will obliviate the paper gains.
BTW 2: Not saying that Trumps plan will work. Just my opinion that the Government Ruling Class, and their silly little yapping Left Wing puppets. Are due for a fall.

That maybe correct but the consequences will be far worse. Maybe it's time for the country to take a lesson in humility?
After we achieve that. Time to take on Trump.

On this we agree

So much for not liking socialism only it's a different type , you just don't pay TAX and PRINT money , by the time everyone figures out what's going on it will be to late...........

The imminent threat to the People's Freedoms in the Western World. Are the Marxists, Radical Left and Progressives.

I view the fascists as an equally or greater peril.
They must not be allowed to oppress and enslave us.

And your point is?
Using a Trump type to destroy a greater evil. Is not unusual.

Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Batista, or Castro?

‘I was all set to terminate’: Inside Trump’s sudden shift on NAFTA
President Trump was set to announce Saturday, on the 100th day of his presidency, that he was withdrawing from the North American Free Trade Agreement — the sort of disruptive proclamation that would upend both global and domestic politics and signal to his base that he was keeping his campaign promise to terminate what he once called “a total disaster” and “one of the worst deals ever.”

“I was all set to terminate,” Trump said in an Oval Office interview Thursday night. “I looked forward to terminating. I was going to do it.”

There was just one problem: Trump’s team — like on so many issues — was deeply divided.

As news of the president’s plan reached Ottawa and Mexico City in the middle of the week and rattled the markets and Congress, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue and others huddled in meetings with Trump, urging him not to sign a document triggering a U.S. withdrawal from NAFTA.
