Your "Huh" is getting old bye the way.
First of all, show me a link that qualifies you as a credible source of any type of intelligent information on the subject instead of throwing out your "huh" or "dolt".
You live here in the U.S. part time and feel you somehow know everything about every car, woman and the average American? Idiot you are!!.
Heheh, generalization. Thats you alright.
Like I said, "your a dick" and that's genuine American slang. Get over yourself and go away. We have enough freeloaders in this country and you're not helping any.
Take your wit to one of these other great countries you claim to have visited and share your great wisdom on them. They might fall for it.
Other than that have fun being the "Ultimate Internet Troll hero" of Westminster Colorado.
I'm not really sure how we got so far off topic, but I have to take issue with the assertion that Americans, overall, are lazy. Having worked with a number of global corporations, I can safely say that Europeans work FAR less than do Americans (and no, they are not more efficient). Hell, the French work a 35 hour workweek, Germans get 8 weeks of vacation every year, and Australians and Scandinavian countries have about 30 different national holidays. Every single time I try to schedule a meeting with clients overseas, there is inevitably someone on "holiday" or simply out of the office.
Basically, I believe that the U.S. leads the world population in BOTH well-educated, driven, hardworking individuals AND lazy, fat, stupid dolts (ahem, UAW, UFT, etc). That's the beauty of a democratic, capitalistic society. . . we get the best (worst?) of both worlds.

Historically for post graduate degrees you would be correct -- however those days are now over.
Are you like this in real life? I don't think so. No coward ever expresses his view anywhere except the Internet.

I fight back with my dollars. Fuk that company, won't use them for anything. When they decide to put jobs back into our economy instead of sending them overseas, I'll do business with them again. Until then fuk 'em. Vote with your wallet bro.

Ask any of my friends and neighbors, if anything in real life I am more blunt.
You would be walking home home with a limp. That applies to most anywhere except the Internet. You are a coward.

No, you lie.

The only coward I see here is someone who lacks the intelligence to debate at an adult level and resorts to name calling.
Actually, in thinking about it I realize that most of the folks I discuss issues like this with are educated and rational human beings. They don't mind being on the right or wrong side of a debate so long as the process is entertaining.
I suppose I could lower myself to your level and point out what I suspect are the real issues in your life that make you post in such an immature manner -- but honestly I don't care. I choose not to associate with stupid people in real life and I don't have the patience or the desire to attempt to argue with dumb people on the Internet either.



That comment was for him. He's an american and I'm calling him a stupid american, not you or anyone else. If you're offended then that's too bad
