If I had to choose one thing I hate about this country(Canada) it'd be that the idea of universal health care was conceived with the thought that everyone have access to basic health care. Nowhere in Tommy Douglas's vision does it state that we have to fund the most extravagant surgeries and procedures for anyone that wants, or needs them. We need some basic guidelines for health care usage. Cutting programs like eye examanations won't help us curb excessive spending, but converseley, I think limitations will help keep programs in place. Am I crazy? Is this a stupid thought?

I'm guessing you're American. If so, you're the reason your country sucks shiite. If not, you watch too much American television, and you're the reason your country sucks shiite.

I'm actually quite fond of this country and don't think it sucks anything, especially shiite.

I'd be pretty fucking ungrateful if I could find a reason strong enough to hate my country.

Originally posted by klingklang77 I pay taxes here and have a retirement fund. I can exempt my taxes when I lived in the country for 330+ days in a tax year. For the year 2006 I lived here for 4 months. They expect me to claim that even though I also pay tax on it here. As far as I am concerned, I dont really get any benefits from the US, when I am here. Really, what do I get? Embassy usuage? I dont know, I think about giving up my citizenship to the US, but I hold on to it, b/c 1- it is easier on the passport line 2- Social Security (if it is even around then). I dont think I can do dual citizenship.

My response was to quote JFK: Ask not what your country...

his response : Yeah, no

My response: You're a compete asshole. When I was a kid, to be an American was the shit. People like you have turned it into a fucking toilet. You don't deserve to be an American, and Australia doesn't deserve to have you inflicted upon them. Fucking turd...flush.

I know the end of the quote. I can't help out a country when it gets involved in a war I didnt support in the first place, with a government that is corrupt, the list goes on.

This is a thread about what you dont like about your country. I responded, you are being hostile. When you were a kid, perhaps Bush wasn't president (but who knows with your childish response). I liked America before then. I feel it has really let me down. You are being the "fucking asshole".

And it isnt a "his response" it is her response. I cant believe you would talk to a female like that...
