Name one thing that has eroded to foot traffic other than grass. (Roads are not comparable)

Who says it will be standing in 10 years. Sucked in by an unknown massive sinkhole. Although there is a higher probablity of it being bought by some rich arsehole such as Jeff Bezos for 10 billion.

Heritage sites can be bought, its just currently more profitable to put on display. They are just mad people are taking souvenirs. Who cares if it is a ship of thesus or not. It just shows they dont care about fixing it.

No. Wasting money to put in ornate and ridiculously fancy and unnecessary doors to congress. Except they're not voted in and they're mostly appointed due to cronyism or nepotism, with the rest inheriting. It's a vile institution that should be abolished, but as it stands it is a fundamental department of our government.

I was once told by a career nurse that there are three kinds of nurses. Those who train but leave soon because they realize they won't be able to handle the work, those who stay a while and get by with drinking, and those who are just made for the job and are in their element. I would venture to add a fourth category, among those in nursing homes who want the money without too much responsibility. I was in and out of the hospital twice in the past two yesrs and came across some of those in rehab.
