You're right, no one nation has figured it out cos they don't want to figure it out. It takes years to become a doctor, solicitor etc.. but any old pleb can become a politician. The aim is to keep the fiscal boot on the neck of the vast majority of the world.
As for the US, the blind allegiance/flag saluting/USA! USA! USA! thing really sickens me. It's like "we've got nothing to cheerlead so we'll cheerlead cheerleading". It's like modern day Nazism with it's love the motherland, we are all right and they are wrong attitude of brainwashed masses that react defensively to statements like the one I made.
Fuck nations that divide us people should swear allegiance to themselves and unite us. Americans got up in arms because a sportsman killed some dogs.
A guy who plays a violent sport engaged in a violent sport of his own with un/willing participants (dogs to be interviewed later) that would/not be rewarded based upon performance (to be confirmed again) and everyone went buck wild not realizing the irony of the whole situation.
There's all that PETA fuss that riles folks up but noone has set up a People For The Ethical Treatment Of People have they?
This building is the same as the pope riding around in his bullet proof popemobile, where's the love and faith that's preached about?
