I couldn't agree more about the issue of getting (or not rather) change EVERYWHERE. Why can't shopkeepers or managers (if there are any) just make a bank run in the morning like every other freaking mom and pop in the rest of the world? I almost always cause a fuss over not wanting to receive an extra book of matches, a cherry flavored cough drop or a chicklet. Stores that don't offer change are forcing customers to buy things they don't want. Its kinda like if your bank were to round down to the nearest nickel and then pocket the change of every transaction. After repeating this action all day you could come out a couple hundred bucks on top. No thanks. I'm with Christian, just shut it and give me my money back. Thank god.

Here, too, the world is falling to pieces, and I feel selfish that I worry about a bunch of bloodsuckers who have absolutely no shame or principles back home. I find myself more media dependent than ever, yet it's so hard to find reliable information. Please write more as you make sense of what's going on.
