[quote:Anonymous Coward 3940512:MV8yMDQ2MTIzXzM0Mzg0Mzk3X0EyRTkxQUVG] 1) While USA withers with terrible education, low to zero retirement prospects for the 20-30year old workers.. And, uh, a financial system that recently took down the rest of the world's with it.... In Europe, a place where most countries are some form of 'Democratic Socialism', or similar socialistic systems with capitalistic elements and generally well regulated free markets, they have: 1) Public Healthcare 2) Universal Retirement 3) REAL unemployment 4) REAL Immigration control (to protect their benies) 5) Higher Education\Training for all students (with stipend so students\parents can make it happen) 2) NONE of this is 'communism' - it is a social system mostly - they use a capitalism with regulations for everything else.. ALL OF Europe is like my above. SOO - before you smart guys say" GREECE IS FAILING!!!!" Like that somehow negates the above facts. REMEMBER: After Greece is done recovering from the financial disaster WE caused them (after all, their debt ratio IS lower than outs) - they will STILL HAVE those things above - and we will still not have them. We are lost. We pay the same tax as Canadians, yet they get almost all, or all, of the list above... All our tax goes to is CORPORATE WELFARE. [/quote]

You are in a class.
You study really hard.
You get an A.
Other kids in the class get C's D's and fail.
The teacher says, gee, I feel really sorry for those who didn't do well...
I'm gonna give everyone A's.
HOW DO YOU FEEL?
This is what you voted in.
The flunkies are gonna get freebies because it's what democrat means....
You lose if you were the one getting the A's and working hard.
You win if you were the loser, druggie, and anyone who couldn't hold a job or get one...
Thank Obama.
He's giving you the A.
Oh yeah and the free cell phone....
Those who got A's, guess what? You're paying for those flunkies cell phones and their cell data plan and their food and their school!
Oh yeah, you have to work, but they don't!!!
HAHAHAHAHA.
Stupid youth.
Get what you voted in.
