Yeah a lot of americans are fat, so what? You ever seen a fat hunter make a shot from 500 yards or more? I have. The only difference between a deer and a nazi is you can eat a deer without getting indigestion. Those who are fat would slim up pretty quick. Also keep in mind that those who are fat would be able to handle lack of food better than the skinny, Fat is afterall a calorie storehouse. So what if our violence is directed at each other, its only becuse we dont have anyone else to kill at the moment except each other. Yeah some would whine and cry and break, most wouldn't.

Things we can learn from the french
1) How to surrender
2) How to allow socialist policies to run an economy into the ground
3) how to allow 11000 people to die from heatstroke in a single summer
4) How to not bathe or use deodorant
Things we can learn from the germans
1) How to be lazy
2) How to allow socialists policies to create the highest unemployment rate in the western world
3) How to create economic policies for the E.U. that we then violate because of reason 2
4) How to sell the greatest car company in a country to Chrysler so it can finally be run by competant people.

I think that socialised healthcare is wrong.
Originally posted by mwm1331And lets face it the vaunted french system didn't do much for the thousands of people who died last year did it? From a heatwave? How does that even happen? It happened because the french system allowed it to happen.

That is a very intersting take on things. The simple fact is tha the vaunted French Healthcare system dropped the ball. Even when people got to the hospital, they died. To simply chalk it up as "being old" (my french brother in law also took this line) is simply wrong. Has that happened in the US? Plase show me links that show even 5000 people dying because of a heat wave in the US or any other event (other than 911). When has the US health care system broken down to that extent? If that hppened it would have been all over the papers etc.
As in the case of Princess Diana, and these poor souls, it is the French HC system to blame.
I'm really tired as an American of hearing all this anti-US crap...you want to dish it-here it is back in spades.
So why is it that 90% of Canadians live within 100 miles of the US border then eh? EH?
Cancel freakin' NAFTA and build a wall across the north! EH?
