    The “military power” reputation took a huge hit this year too. Really? That bs is why they forego all these benefits for their people?

    You dont know this but some Americans are profoundly stupid. By some I mean more then any body can manage.

    Do just because you dont ride in those circles, dont think for a moment american exceptionalism isnt dome sort of self defeating pride that will soon have my country on its knees.

      You dont know this but some Americans are profoundly stupid.

      Isn’t this the case basically everywhere? Is there a culture or country that doesn’t have profoundly stupid people in it?

    There are plenty who don’t, but there are an unfortunately large number who do

    They’re stupid, indoctrinated, uneducated etc. but they’re very real

    I’ve had people from all over the world tell me that the US is the greatest country in the world,

    They were all stupid, racist and had never been there
