It comes as no surprise to me that there are many who seem to have given up on America. I wish I could inspire you to stand up and harness your anger to do something, anything. There are many things that we need to improve. It all starts by believing that things can be improved and that you, personally, have the power to help. The disaster in the Gulf of Mexico has been a wake up call for me. If we do nothing, the world will be continue on this path of ignorance, corruption, abuse, war and destruction. We have the choice, right now, beginning today, to use our powers for good and not evil. I will not be taking part in any more tit-for-tat squabbling. The world needs me for other things. The world needs you, too. Your country needs you and your grandchildren need you. We can make this world a better place, but only if we work together. | |||

Alawen, your country is the center through which emanates the fascist regime style support all over the world. One of the first thing you could do to help is remove those rose-tinted glasses.
Might i suggest, at the risk of sounding condescending, these news sources which will give you a different point of view than Fox news: http://www.democracynow.org/shows/2010/6/21 (Yesterdays show with an hour long interview with Oliver Stone talking about his documentary about the changes happening in latin america) http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/ http://www.commondreams.org/ http://www.guardian.co.uk/ http://english.aljazeera.net/ http://www.flashpoints.net/ http://electronicintifada.net/ | ||

By the way, if you could translate that into Chinese, I think you'd have a hit.

My friend is of vietnamese origin, raised in Montreal and living in NYC. He says each time he comes back to Montreal its like a 1000 pound weight off his shoulders, because he says in NYC even the asians are segregated between themselves, cambodian Laotian, etc... and there is lots of racism there. Single-payer healthcare system like someone mentioned, the list is long why i prefer living in Montreal rather than in the states. I dont mean to turn this into a USA vs Canada flamefest but its another proof of your rose-tinted glasses, you thinking everyone obviously would prefer to live in the US rather than in their own country of origin. Not to say i hate everything American right? Or else i wouldnt have listed democracy now!, wouldnt listen to american music, etc etc etc... The fact that i have to specify that im not "anti-american" is kind of telling of whats the atmosphere right now in the US, like you have to babytalk americans into reality. Or just slam them in the face with it, which is what i did in my first post. I thought that what was annoying in your post is the misinformed naiveté of it, the HOO-RAH wrestling match USA USA USA! vibe to it, which is why i chose the slamming option. | |||
