Let's get a couple things straight.

Hey, Bluefrog. I'm Korean, too. |
I'm not Korean. I'm human. Where I'm from and where my parents, grandparents, etc., are from has nothing to do with my identity or anything. I was born in Canada and have a Canadian passport. My identity is not tied to it or the passports that my grandparents had.

First, personal attacks aren't warranted.

The Korean government is extremely xenophobic in how they handle the "Korean" vs. "foreigner" distinction... |
-> xenophobic? No Koreans knew that... |
That was a statement of fact. Not a value judgement. You only need to read the law or listen to the news here to check its veracity.

Thank-you for further proving my point.

What are you talking about? The requirement for a SSN # is primarily a security issue, but the way it is implemented simply doesn't work. It's about as effective as using a band-aid for cancer. Rudeness is not relevant to the issue.

-> overblown redtape and idiocy? As far as I know, this issue in other countries is the same level as ours. (I've lived in Japan, USA, Brazil. Currently I'm living in Canada. So, I know their culture and social system.) |
You obviously didn't read my other post:

I have to go through hell to pay my ISP here because they are too stupid to take my money. I would spend more money online here, but I just can't. It's completely silly. |
-> are they taking your money? Here in North America, they are taking away much more money from me here... |
Agreed that bandwith is much cheaper here, thankfully. The point I meant to make was that when someone tries to give you money and you refuse, that seems just plain stupid.
Here's one more personal opinion: If you want to jump on the personal attack band-wagon, have some ammunition to back it up.
