So, I sent out a call on my newsletter for questions, and got a few hundred! Some of them were personal questions I answered over email, some require long posts that I\u2019ll write, I saved some for a part 2, and some are here now!<\/p>\n<p>I thought this would be fun and questions range from travel to politics to science to the zany! So let\u2019s get to it: (Note: some people asked the same questions, so I lumped their names together!!)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><b>1.\u201cWhat is your favorite flavor of ice cream?\u201d<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>I don\u2019t eat ice cream anymore (I know. I\u2019m crazy.) but, when I did, I used to love mint chocolate chip and eat it like it was my job! That stuff is DELICIOUS! Also, Ben and Jerry\u2019s Peanut Butter Cup. MMMM. I hear they don\u2019t make that anymore, which is sad.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><b>2. \u201cWhat do you think about monarchy? I like my King but would be nice to hear from an American what they think.\u201d<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>I think it is an antiquated system that has no place in the modern world. While I don\u2019t think we should go stripping royal families of the world of their money, I often wonder why taxpayers in many nations still give royal family stipends. They often serve as great state ambassadors but why give them taxpayer money? While I love the idea of the \u201cbenevolent ruler\u201d, in practice, it has rarely ever happened. As Churchill said, \u201cDemocracy is the worst form of government, except for all the rest!\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><b>3. \u201cI have American passport. Why is a visa to India so expensive?\u201d <\/b><\/h4>\n<p>That\u2019s because we make it so difficult for Indians to get a visa and come to America. We make it expensive and put onerous restrictions on them so they do the same for us. It is just a tit-for-tat thing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo.wordpress.co.ua\/barletta\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/30\/2016\/10\/blog-post-image-1a.jpg\" alt=\"blog image\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo.wordpress.co.ua\/barletta\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/30\/2016\/10\/blog-post-image-1a.jpg\" alt=\"blog image\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><b>4. \u201cDo you miss having a sense of home? And, on average, how much do you spending annually on travel?\u201d<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>That\u2019s because we make it so difficult for Indians to get a visa and come to America.
