Yeah Britain does have a problem, but I live in Belgium
Also your argument of kids just want to get drunk is very true, but then again, so do most teenagers/young adults...
Ow and btw, Europe is pretty much owning the US at the moment, how's your fancy dollar now friend? How's you're frigging economy going? How's your healthcare? How's the South? I could go on for some minutes here but I think I've made my point by now.
Well, the dollar's down. Though, so's the Euro, and the
world economy is sucking a bit. On the other hand, we still have an economy comparable to the entirety of the European Union, and we're still the driving force of the world technologically (look at those nobel prizes in science, friend), militarily (the new joint-strike fighter jet is being developed where?), and medically (look at where the pharmaceutical companies are located). We also don't take two months of vacation, nor have an unemployment rate anywhere near France's. The south's doing fine, really, though we do have crazy people (same as anywhere). Oh, and you know that whole "national defense" thing you guys aren't picking up the tab for? Don't worry, we'll cover you. And eastern Europe, and the UN, and really any time you effete dandies want to have someone step in somewhere with boots on the ground. I don't see many Belgians in NATO joint task forces... Or UN peacekeeping forces. Oh, and we still pay a huge amount of the money that goes to the UN in general... And to the WTO, and the World Health Organization.
But, yeah, excluding all of that we're really getting owned by Europe. I guess we're totally wrong, and we should be more like Europe.
Your dollar sank the deepest of both mentioned currencies, you idiots even started this whole economic mess with your idiotic free-market and taking loans you can't pay back. Of course you've got an economy almost equal to Europe's, you're almost the size of Europe and with it massive amounts of resources and workers. But then again with the economic "dip" you're unemployment is 9.8% and that's about 30 million people without a job... France's 7% is +- 4.550.000 people, it's high but not as dramatic as the US rate.
Medically and technologically Europe is also doing fine and compared to you're massive amount of space, workers and resources, even better. I think you're forgetting that a huge part of Europe's industry is based on technology development and production of it, just mentioning Belgium, Ireland, Sweden and Germany. You know we actually helped with your stemcell research? And that a Flemish prof actually discovered a great deal about it? Just google: Catherine Verfaillie.
Have no idea what you mean with the 2 months of vacation, you mean for schools or what do you mean?
The south's doing fine and there are crazy people everywhere ... yeah you guys are the leading country in producing retards, Hillbillies in the south, republicans, your god damn ego of we're the best country in the world, no universal healthcare), you can buy weapons and ammo like it's normal in the US, enormous amount of corruption and criminality, most people there are homophobes, highest percentage of religious fanatics and idiots, a whole country based on a "supreme being" your presidents can fuck up everything and say :"God bless America" every freaking speech and you idiots would still cheer and your schools are very, very pathetic, you tards spend enormous amounts of money in the big sport stadiums and training halls but not enough in your education system, result: your basic education is below the average of Europe's and especially that of Belgium. Did you know Belgium has actually 1 of the best education systems of the world? But I'm not being ignorant and I'm willing to admit that there are good universities in the US, but basic education is lacking.
How hypocrite of you, just like the rest of your country btw but ok, you spend millions on the UN and now you're the big good American? You invade numerous countries to help the "government" and say they are a threat to national security. You bomb the hell out of innocent people and you're saviours? You invade Vietnam and bomb every piece of jungle with napalm and agent orange, killing thousands of innocents and you're the god damn saviours???
You invade Korea, Yemen, Iraq, Afghanistan (With this one I have to admit we're also there, Afghanistan has a chance to change but still, I'm not proud of nor would I want any of use there...), Cuba, ... the list keeps on going. And in most cases it's just to annoy and taunt Russia indirectly or any communist faction. You're a warmongering nation and you should feel ashamed of yourself. But no ! Let's glorify the whole the thing, it's good that we kill innocent men, women and children! So don't come here and say you're the big defenders of freedom you lousy hypocrite bastards...
The NATO HQ was built in Brussels and we play an active role, but then again we're a small country with a small army that we only use for peacekeeping and humanitarian operations
(Blue Helmets, mine sweeping, protection, sending food/water, helping to build infrastructure, schools, hospitals, etc...). So we're not doing anything in the UN and NATO according to you? Well my dear boy, you're information is truly terrible.
So if we don't go killing people with guns blazing like the Americans we're not helping?
This just proved another aspect of your sickening country.
And again at the end of your little post you say that you give millions to the UN. You're repeating yourself, is it the only good thing you actually did? And it's just another way of trying to keep up your image of being friendly lads who want to help the world.
So yeah, you donate a lot of money, woohoo, so does every other country in Europe and outside of it, oh and by the way we started like most of the biggest humanitarian organisations on the planet : Médecins Sans Frontières, Amnesty International, 11 11 11, Emergency Nutrition Network, Damien Fund, Red Cross, Oxfam, etc... it's a little more than what you mentioned don't you think? And this is just European operations which we finance, didn't even mention non-European.
But, yeah, including all of that, you're getting owned, and being more like Europe would help the world a lot.
