As far as saying that Britain is jealous of America, Im not sure what they wuld be jealous of. Your faltering economy? Your 6 MILLION people in jail? Your huge divide between the rich and poor? Your racism? Your sexism? Your homophobia? Your falling dollar? Your poor education system? Your lack of a social healthcare system? Your huge amounts of gun crime? Or maybe your leaders that are using you all to achieve their own personal ends? I don't know about anyone else here but I see little reason Britain would be jealous of the U.S. |
Speaking of faltering economy, Canada's really tearing up the global markets right now, arent they? HAHAHA
And our economy isn't faltering, it's settling down. We had a number of years in the early 90's of staggering growth - it's something no market can sustain so eventually it had to slow down. I don't really care about how many people are in jail. People that commit crimes deserve to be there, so they are. Rich and poor divide? It exists everywhere, bud. Look it up. Falling dollar? You mean, for ONCE, the US dollar is actually falling against the pounds? (Not to mention the Canadian dollar, which has a history of constantly being in the hole). Lack of a healthcare system? Hahaha, that's the one thing you idiot Canadians try to hold over us. And YES the British are very jealous of the US because this could've been an extension of their country. However, we, the underdog, with the aid of the French (which is why the British hate the French also) overcame the oppressive rule. Now Great Britain exists to kiss America's ass.
Sexism? Exists everywhere.
Homophobia? Exists everywhere.
Poor education system? Ha - hardly.
It's nice to see you've lapped up all the uneducated global propaganda about the US.
What you don't understand is that America would give millions of lives to defend either one of your countries (Britain or Canada). I think you should be a LITTLE more appreciative of the amount of shit we've done for you. Take World War II for instance. Had it not been for US intervention, Britain would've fallen to the Nazis. Same would've happened to Canada in time.
