American Democracy - why it SUCKS!

Heh.
http://static.flickr.com/95/274169844_e95f267cf8_o.gif

Why can't we solve the Middle East conflict?

Why are millions homeless in the richest nation on earth?

Why can we afford WAR but not HEALTHCARE for our veterans and our poor?

Why do the rich get richer and the poor poorer?

Why, oh, why - you ask - are all these things happening in America, the greatest democracy on earth?


One answer fits all.

Not racism (because people of different race form alliances to get ahead) - but TRIBALISM.

Because the people that live there dont want it solved.


Why are millions homeless in the richest nation on earth?

What is your source for that number?


Why can we afford WAR but not HEALTHCARE for our veterans and our poor?

Show us where ANYONE is denied healthcare!!
I dont mean elective surgery,but the basic healthcare needs.


Why do the rich get richer and the poor poorer?

The poor arent geting poorer,but the rich are getting richer.
Why do you hate them for that?
Are you jealous or do you want their money?

Why, oh, why - you ask - are all these things happening in America, the greatest democracy on earth?

American democracy doesn't suck compared to norwegian democracy, they are merely two different forms of government.

The things that work in Norway would most definitely not work in America.

However, I'm glad I don't have to live in America Smile
