I'll tell you what the U.S. can do.
First off, take interest in other country's history and world economy, teach that to your idiotic people.
The world calls us idiots and then when they need our help they are the first one's to grovel, yup, feels real good to be stupid, let me tell you. Maybe if we are so stupid, then we should just act like we aren't smart enough to bail other people out of a jam, and let things like world wars, genocides, famines sort themselves out.
Second, teach them to do physical exercise, your country is partly hated because you go around talking about how good your country is, and yet many Americans are obese.
That is a silly thing to hate someone over, you'll have to do MUCH better than that.
What you can also do, is stay out of world policies, don't send any troops to 3rd World Countries
So, you want us to learn about the rest of the world's business, then, when we see our help is needed by the 85% of the world with no chance, you just want to let those people suffer? That's not very communistic of you.
and don't laugh at other countries on your " comedy " stations, I garantee America will be more loved.
Other countries insult us by telling our countrymen how they should live, and you don't expect a backlash, yeah, wait for that to happen.
P.S. Electing decent looking Presidents wouldn't hurt either.
And you wonder why we laugh at you after making a statement like that.

Okay, see, you don't understand and you never will, all that you just said is mostly incorrect, for most countries. That is again insulting other countries of which you know nothing about.

P.S. Fish eggs are called Caviar, it's a delicasy which Russia has much of. :mrgreen:

So no one can make generalizations about other countries, but you can judge the US partially from a trip to Best Buy. You're right, I don't understand. But, I guess that's to be expected, seeing as I'm a stupid American.

Maybe YOU should have a little more knowledge before you make sweeping generalizations about the US. Perhaps someday you will decide to start educating yourself and stop stereotyping others.

It's OK, there was a time when I thought I knew it all too, then I started functioning in the REAL world.

Ignorant and arrogant at the same time, all you need to do is throw in some name calling and you could hit the trifecta.

Kind of odd that you would complain about someone insulting people of any country. I don't think I've seen any post of yours that isn't an insult aimed at the US. Or is it that it's alright to insult people, as long as you agree with the insult?

I get it your pissed because nobody gives a damn about Canada. What the hell are we supposed to learn from you. The only decent peice of history is when we tried to invade Canada during the War of 1812. Here's an idea do something worth talking about and we might take some interest in you country, until then I have my attention on what happens here and where ever Bin Laden is. I still doubt you have ever been to America.(What kind of weak ass story was that?) If its even true is that seriously what got you all ticted off at us for. Get the **** over it.

I'm not lazy. I work full time 35 hours a week QUOTE]

You call 35 hours a week full time over there? now that says something about work ethic of the public.

We have higher productivity levels than many nations with a longer working week. That says something about the work ethic of the public.

Providing people with a liveable wage for a 35 hour week is an enormous social advance. Working parents have time for their kids. Citizens have time for sport, the arts, cultural activities, all of the things that in combination with working life provide balance. You United Statesians wouldn't understand that there are more ways of measuring a society's success than good figures on Wall Street. What's the point living in the world's largest economy if you have to work two jobs to make a decent living, and you fear unemployment because you'll lose all your health care and the state benefits wouldn't feed the cat?

Maybe we (America) should have just let the CCCP take over western Europe. The you ungrateful whining small minded, incorrect fact spewing, jealous, little France lovers would be singing a different tune. But then Comrade Brian and Soviet Guy would be happy. And happy teenagers would send the earth out of it's orbit. You know Urethra Franklin, the USA still foots 70 percent of NATO's bill. Protecting your asses. You want to spew BS about debt and how our economy is gonna fail(he he he eh ha ha ha ah that's a good one) how about you protect your damn selves or at least pay your fair share. If the USA was attacked I wonder if any one besides the Brits would come to our aid. I doubt it.

You think you can buy other's subservience, but it's wearing thin. You protect nothing but your own interests.
Protecting our asses? Like you protected the Chileans when you toppled their democraticaly elected government and handed them over to Pinochet's death squads? How are we to believe you "saved" us from Soviet communists when the Vietnamese saw you off?
The US won't be attacked, because aside from the Islamic terrorists, your enemies don't need to use your Bully tactics. You'll feel the effects econmically and in political isolation. Bush is leading you into a wilderness. Have fun y'all.

Then what, pray tell, do you call the Chinese aggression toward Taiwan? "Economic isolation?"

I said the US.
Or are you arrogant enough to believe Taiwan belongs to you?
 
Urethra Franklin said:

Not at all. You said that "your enemies don't need to use your Bully tactics"

I would classify China as a potential enemy, and make the claim that they have proven that they're not at all hesitant to use bully tactics.

Of course we could play semantics for a few posts and snipe at each other, but I liked being civil more.

Providing people with jobs at all over there seems to be an enormous task for you folks.

Well hell yes it's easy to do all those things when you're unemployed.

Urethra Franklin said:
You United Statesians wouldn't understand.
You're right, we don't, because we work harder, play harder, and maintain a much higher standard of living.

The great thing about those comedy stations is their jokes. Jokes are supposed to be taken seriously. Thats why they are called jokes. 2nd of all we don't make fun of other countries we make fun of other races in our country. Every race has jokes told about them. This isn't bad until some Canadian asshole starts to take them serious.

Our enemies use one tactic. Their mouth. Because aside from Islamic terrorists all of them are smart enough to see that getting in a war with us is bad news for them.

Urethra Franklin said:

We won't go back into isolation. The first time we tried Isolationism, EUROPEANS started world war one, we came out of Isolationsism and ended it.
Next time we tried isolationism, WW2 happend. We came into the war and bailed all of you out.
Bad things happen when the U.S. go into isolation so we won't be doing that soon.

I'm Russian/Polish/Ukrainian, and there's much to learn from them.

Alright, you know you and I agree on most, so I don't want to seem attacking. I agree that if providing a livable wage for 35 hours a week were possible, it would be a serious advance in society, but as is the Euro is plummeting because of the mixture of countries with such policies allowing livable wages at 35 hours a week and nations that could compete in a global market.


.

That's incorrect. The Euro is a strong currency, remarkabkly successful for such a new one. At it's introduction it had parity with your dollar. It's now worth significantly more.
 
GottaHurt said:

Untrue. You're talking about a continent where some countries have unemployment a few percentage points higher than the US, and some lower. So no, the majority of the active population does have jobs.
GottaHurt said:
Well hell yes it's easy to do all those things when you're unemployed. .

And when you're employed too, but not in the US where you may have to work two jobs to scrape a living, where your holidays virtually don't exist etc.
GottaHurt said:
You're right, we don't, because we work harder, play harder, and maintain a much higher standard of living.

You work longer hours because you're slaves to capitalism, you get hardly any time to play, and your standard of living is greatly offset by your lack of health and social coverage. Any extra income you can't enjoy since it has to go your health care and pensions.

China doesn't need to attack you. Its culture is slowly invading your society and its economy will dwarf yours.

I work for a brokerage, and my section focuses in Eurodollar contracts, and we work fairly closely with the currency exchange. Ever since about a week before France voted no on the EU constitution the Euro's been plummeting, dropping about 9 or 10 cents since then against the dollar, which is also extremely weak, just for different reasons. For the last week they have both been dropping pretty consistantly in terms of other currencies, while exchanging at fairly consistant rates against each other. With the dollar our decline is based on trade deficits and budget deficits that make creditors view there to be increased likelyhood that the US will default on our debt, based on how it becomes more and more unlikely that we will be able to pay it off. .

It dropped about 10 eurocents around the time of the referenda, and is slowly recovering. Even at that low point, it is still worth considerably more than at the time of its introduction, when it was literally dollar for euro. The US dreams of regaining that exchange rate. "Plumetting" is dramatically incorrect.

Have you ever met a real American? One who actually has a t.v.. Or who has seen a book, or just maybe went to school. How is it we know nothing of the world yet we have to support you people. You seem to know nothing about America.

We don't support many countries, that's Europe not the US, a perfect example could be that just a few days ago, Tony Blair asked Bush to give 25 billion dollars like Britain just did, but Bush gave a pitiful 600 million, and the war in iraq has costed over a hundred billion is it? And the Government constantly hands out billions of dollars to businesses,
