I only managed to read through four or five pages of posts before I gave up and decided to reply.

I am American born. 3rd generation American on my father's side, and 2nd generation American on my mothers side.

All of my immediate (not dead, male) family has served in the military for the U.S. of A.

My Grandfather and Uncle were in the Navy (grandfather was a Sea-Bee) father was army, my other uncle was Air force.

I have the utmost respect for my country and the men and women who have sworn their lives to protect our way of life... (the standing military.)

..but I absolutely $!@#$&# hate our government.

America is not a Democracy, it is a Capitalist Dictatorship. We have the false idea of choice thrown in our face every election year, but we're only ever voting for two sides of the same freakin' coin.

I could go on and on and on about this for days, but the majority of what I have to say isn't 'precisely related' to the thread so I'll leave it at this -

Fuck us. The world is better off without us meddling in every little #$@ @#$@ed thing. If anything we should be reduced to a second or third world country just so we are forced to stop sticking our fingers into the collective pie, thus ruining it for everyone else.
