Wah. Democracy works. Socialism doesn't.


The irony is that you didn't even get what he said.

We care deeply what you think. We just think you're deluded and oppressed,
and we want to educate you about the benefits of representative democracy
and capitalism, which is what makes the US the most powerful, influential
and free nation on the planet.


So Americans are free and everyone else is oppressed? I guess you've never
read the Patriot Act of other gross abuses of freedom. American influence
is waning because of your arrogance and gradually declining economic status.
100 years ago, Britain was the world power; fifty years later it was broke
and losing influence. Why should anyone believe the yanks will last any
longer given that they pay almost no attention to the reality of what's
going on around them?

To assume that the US is the only free and democratic nation is both naive
and a grotesque misrepresentation of facts.
