I'm not sure where you got the impression the United States of America was any more "free" than countries like Germany, Japan, Australia, the Netherlands, or Sweden. Is it because of our constitution? Theirs are pretty much the same. Is it because you think we have superior economic/social mobility here? We don't.
The one freedom you have here, that you don't quite have in those other advanced countries, is the freedom to die of disease because you can't afford treatment, or maybe to die of complications during childbirth.

You can't be serious. The U.S. is vastly different than every country you mentioned, which would probably explain why Americans aren't packing all their shit and flocking to Germany, Japan, Australia, The Netherlands, or Sweden...they are all coming HERE.
And if you can't afford treatment (as in health insurance) maybe you should look for a better paying job...perhaps one with medical benefits. Maybe if you'd have had your ass whipped as a kid so you would have been a responsible adult.
And just an FYI- Most women who die of complications during childbirth do so in hospitals, look it up. Millions of children are born just fine at home...that includes all 3 of mine.

Trolling aside, you dumb motherfuckers need to quit defending corporal punishment simply because you do it, and it was done to you. It's outright illegal in several countries and there is strong scientific evidence it is harmful. Maybe if your white trash parents didn't smack you around so much, you'd have learned to think critically about your behaviors and whether they might be wrong.
I mean, come on, what a coincidence. You got your ass whipped as a kid, and here you are defending it.
Think about it. How do you want your kid to solve their problems when they grow up? With violent emotional outbursts? What about with words, patience, and logic? Which approach is going to give them a better chance to succeed in life?

Again, I got my ass tore up when I did wrong as a child and I'm just fine...not bitter at my parents whatsoever. It's called being an adult and having the common sense to know a little spanking here and there is vastly different from beating the shit out of your kids until they're black and blue. Btw- If you need "scientific evidence" to know how to raise children, you probably shouldn't have had any to begin with.
