@MNSpy This is the third case I know of. As a #German #tourist you should really avoid the #USA now. I don't want to know how many people are unlawfully detained pending deportation who don't have a lobby or someone from an embassy who cares.

The GuardianAvoid traveling to the USA, even as a tourist with all your paperwork in order, even with your return flight booked and the booking printed and with you at all times... ICE can still snatch you off the streets and lock you up indefinitely with no access to the outside world. They are crazy. It is very dangerous.

"System is Killing Us" (Food Prices increase)
A #Protest Movement against Food Prices called "System is Killing Us" is gaining popularity around the Balkan regions effected like:
#Bulgaria #Croatia, #Bosnia #BosniaHerzegovina #Montenegro #Albania
"The price increases have hit items like #butter, #milk, #cheese, #meat, and #sausages especially hard, with some international retail chains charging higher prices in Bulgaria than in their home countries, despite a significantly lower standard of living in Bulgaria.
This has fueled growing outrage among the population, especially as these price increases are seen as unfair and exacerbating the #financial struggles of ordinary citizens.
The protest follows similar actions in neighboring countries, where discontent over soaring food costs has led to government responses. In #Croatia, for example, public pressure prompted the government to extend price controls from 30 to 70 food items.
This move came after the country’s entry into the eurozone, which contributed to a surge in #tourism and a corresponding #rise in #prices.
However, after the high #tourist season ended, these prices did not drop, further fueling frustration among #consumers."

'Now it has become a parody of itself, a place from which the local population has been exiled in the interests of #tourism and maturing #investments. Doorways have sprouted combination key safes, a telltale sign of an apartment given over to #tourist lets. A 100-year-old apothecary and shirtmaker that stood on #LaRambla for two centuries have been replaced by shops selling flamenco dolls and ceramic bulls.'

Thanks for adding some beauts to my collection! I used to work in the #tourist industry and have collected dumb questions for decades now.
Among my favorites:
In Sequoia NP, someone asked the front desk clerk, "Are there any undiscovered lakes you can see from the road?"
In Alaska, "What time of year do the moose turn into caribou?"
