The fun thing about politics is that "facts" actually have very little to do with what gets done. At least, as far as the little people are concerned. And by "little people", I mean the midgets. They are kinda funny to look at, aren't they? :)

No... let's take it to the Next Level! Freedoom should use comic sans as the default font!!

Just so you know...

Again, are you talking to me? I can't tell, because you didn't quote my post. It's like you are talking to nobody. I thought you were the etiquette expert. Or was that sarcasm? VVVVV - *sigh*... it amazes me how people can be using vBulletin for over a decade and they still don't understand the basics. You do realize that without quoting someone, you could literally be responding to anyone in the thread, right? Are you talking to everyone, or one person? It helps to make such things clear. postcount++

Who are you talking to? Remember, in certain societies, there are certain expectations when it comes to social etiquette and basic human communication.

Look. 90% of all "illegal" drugs are produced by the USA. 90% of all nuclear weapons are produced by the USA. 90% of all deaths on planet Earth are caused by the USA. 90% of words in the english language are caused by the USA. 90% of all weapons are sold by the USA. 90% of all pollution is caused by the USA. It's extremely OBVIOUS to everyone with a brain (duh), that the USA is responsible for everything bad that happens in the world. Clearly nobody that isn't American has ever done anything bad...

Consider yourself lucky. My wife is half-fish...

So if you had to choose between buying a nucular bomb from the USA or from Russia, which would you prefer?

I thought it said "Ia cthulhu fhtagn Yog-Soggoth Hast'r Ph-nglui mglw'nafh cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!"

I personally find it hard to believe that the USA is 90% responsible for all of the economic decisions made in China... Also, China has a population of over 1.355 billion, while the USA has merely 322 million. How can such a small country (with such an obviously small penis) influence 90% of the world?

Are you honestly going to try and say that socialism/communism never caused bad things to happen in this world because of greed?

How can you say that and then say this?!

Threads about politics are awesome because you literally can't tell if you are being trolled or not, so arguments go on forever.

You wouldn't understand... Stalin knew what true democracy was. To be fair, a dog can run a government, because usually the person that appears to be "in charge" doesn't actually do anything, or they are a puppet that some other government has put in charge. We tolerate capitalism because it basically allows the vast majority of us to live in peace, with massive amounts of food available, and all kinds of toys to play with, while the disgusting poors do all the labor in order to make us happy. If we can't find enough poors to do what we want at an acceptable wage, we either import them from other countries, or we export our operations to poor countries so we can have their poors manufacture stuff for us. USA #1.

I don't think you know what "too big to fail" means, Gez. It means that when corporations make a number of economic mistakes, spanning decades, and they run the risk of going out of business, the government is supposed to reward them with bailouts! That is how we do things in Obama's USA! :) Economics 101 edit: And of course history is repeating itself, because nothing was learned the last time everyone fucked up.
