So your saying we, who are not American have no right to dictate how you should live, but you who are American, have every right in the world to dictate how we live?? If you' ve ever wondered why so many humans hate Merica, there you go. You illustrated it quite expertly.

What I'm saying is that YOU who ARE NOT Americans have NO SAY in our politics. It's dang funny to see you folks trying to decide our elections for us when you have worse problems in your own systems of government and economy that you are unwilling to fix. Ah, but yes, you chaps want the "hand outs" from America don't you. Well you see, you ASS U ME that America is off galavanting around the globe trying to turn every government into a DEMOCRACY when WE are not even a DEMOCRACY ... We are a REPUBLICAN form of Government. You chaps are mostly Democratic Socialist states who have either Fascists or Totalitarian or Dictatorship rulers. The Jealousy of you folks is remarkable. You want what we have, but you aren't willing to sacrifice yourselves to get it. It's laughable.

Isn't that image a little "over the top"? I've heard that kind of thing called hyperbole and if I committed that offence in the OP, then I'm sorry, I might have gotten a little carried away, until that is I reconsider again just who Romney's friends all are and what he really thinks about us youth hostel bottom dwellers..

This whole "socialism" argument I hear all the time is laughable. Could be folks listening to too much Beck, Hannity, Limbaugh etc... The US is far from being socialist and never will be. I know tea baggers who wax moronic about this but don't seem to mind collecting their social security check every month.

You know, I'm almost starting to reconsider that corporate model I was thinking of for my future internet sales empire. Maybe average American Joe doesn't deserve to himself take advantage of the kind hearted generosity of his fellow man and neighbor I don't know, comments like yours really give me pause..

Precisely. It's absurd, and has no real basis in rational thought and analysis. It's just knee-jerk regurgitated propaganda having in some people hijacked something very base within who needs an enemy to sneer at.

Yes, it is a beautiful "concept" but that is all it will ever be. I know, I know that so many people proclaim to want to help everyone else and we all should love each other.....but then you hit reality.

If people never looked up at the stars and dreamed, we wouldn't have satellites or Google Earth and a thousand other things. The fact that you are unwilling to dream of a world where people have given up the BS is what is truly hampering our attempts to create that future. It's certainly worth fighting for; protecting the Earth is everyone's responsibility, whether you can admit it or not.

I don't endorse one world government, I want no world government. I will not give up my message of hope despite any of your fantastical claims about superpowers Jesus had.

Wow the John Wayne days are over dude.
Like I have said before your statements are silly when your government tries to dictate so many other countries policies, so why shouldn't we have our say eh? yes it is up to you the American public to vote who you want but at least we as older more mature countries can help you young ones not make the same mistakes we did.
This is a international forum and you should expect people from all over giving you the american public our views so you can make a decent decision on what the rest of the world thinks should happen.
The USA is not the world governing bodie and nor should any one country, we should work together to make the whole picture better for everyone, not just you in the states.
We will fail as a specie until we work together.

Oh and jealous lol far from it mate, couldn't think of a worse place to live at the moment.

Wow, watered down American crap. Big insult to a country that has come out with some of the best micro brews the world has seen.

Top 100 beers in the world. 7 out of the top 10 are USA beers. Far from watered down.
www.ratebeer.com...

Yes Americans suck in many ways, but us small group of conscious expanding good hearted folk still live here. And fine brews is one way to ease our minds during this atrocious new american idol season we call the presidential election. Im surprised they dont have half time on the debate with million dollar commercials and jay z performing with justin beiber.

Hey, no offence meant. I was kidding, even poking fun at ourselves with the igloo thing. I like most Americans and generally come to their defence here on ATS, just taking offence to someone earlier slagging Canada needlessly.

But yeah.........Canadian beer is better! You just have 10 times our population and get lucky sometimes.

Anyone care to have a go at this? hmm ok I will.

Canada's Economy outperforming US
Canada must protect its water from US
Election envy? Canada's the lucky country

Today, we wouldn’t change places with you for anything. Canada has held its own while you’ve gone downhill. The United States is flat broke, and so are California, New York and Illinois. Your unemployment rate is higher, your inequality is greater and you have 46 million people on food stamps.

Oh and while I'm at it, let's not forget about the pipeline you want us to build for you so you can deplete our resources too. Forget it, we're selling it to China.

Hand outs. lmao. Canada doesn't need US You've got it backwards brother.

Hey c'mon that's not really the Canadian way to be so boastful, eh?

I'll still PM you regarding that beer though!

Beer AND getting lucky, for a Canadian, that's absolute paradise, there's nothing greater, unless the hockey game was playing in the background at the same time.

Well, i meant they get lucky and actually brew a good batch of beer once in a while, hence the "Best Beer" titles, but that all works too.
