When all you are saying is that it "seems" to you that your country is better at battling corruption, there is really not much to argue with is there?
I've already made it clear that I disagree, in the posts above.
I'm not the only American to consider your country socialist by our standards.

Read my post again! I'm not talking especially about television news from BBC - Europe is quite big you know! very different news outlets based in many different countries with conflicting agendas and interests to the English BBC.
Mostly from investigating journalism from different newspaper in different countries so we can cross check the information, it's not so easy to hide the truth here in Europe as in the U.S press for the moment.

Look at the blatant propaganda of someone like Bill O'Reilly on Fox News in comparison with the BBC. The BBC are wonderfully impartial, and are a respected media outlet all around the world; a testiment to their impartiality. It is funded by the British people through the TV tax. Money well spent, better than being brainwashed.

You can have as much comfort as you want in your IngSoc, brother, and thinking that your country is a saint compared to the US. Your government pretty much already is socialist. At least I'm still allowed to buy hand guns and have blades longer than so many inches, but I'm sure you already think those are awful freedoms too.

That's what I would of done. And then after crushing the UK. I would of Nuked the united states if I was Hitler.
Think man. If not for US intervention in the war. The UK population would be speaking German now.

Actually Americans and the English are not different at all. I have been stationed in England for the last two years and it is just like being in America, just less crime. It is not that different
