  1. More on my lack of typing skills, and scatterbrained mind.

    Your country claims to be gods country and the greatest country in the world, so there's a lot of info to gain. Especially when you're studying history in college. So I do know some things about the workings of America, although I don't know everything (which would be impossible). What I said was the way I look at things in America, and the way I think things work, but you don't have to agree with them.
    And yes, other countries do have big problems, but in my opinion they are problems in a different degree. Smaller countries do have smaller issues to deal with, especially if these countries are more unified and have a strong centralized government

    We aint supposed to have a centralized gov. Hence the 10th amendment.

  3. And that is exactly why big problems are dealt with differently by each state

  5. That's the way you look at it. Though to me the best solution would be a unified one, so everyone is held to the same rules and regulations..
    Anyway, I think we're going in circles ride about now, so it might be time to end this discussion..
  6. Word. I shall get back to my love of pushing right to work laws.
  7. The US is too big a country to have a really strong centralized government like many smaller European nations.

    God's country? We don't claim that, we're not a theocracy. At least read the Constitution of my country before you make claims like that.
  9. USA is just as much a country as the EU is. Only their states have a little less power, but their federation is more democratic than the EU.
  10. I really love when people generalize about America, and how many problems we have. I understand there are issues, but what country doesn't? Also, sure, there's a lot of info on America. I'm open to criticism. However, if you're going to make statements about America, at least be factually correct about them. If you don't, it makes you look really ignorant and misinformed.

    I don't know much about the EU, but with the Patriot Act and NDAA the states have lost power in the past ten years.

    Here are two facts... your murder and gun crime rates are high. Especially the gun crime. You have a very big prison population. Nine times higher than Sweden per capita.
