Gee, thanks for the history lesson, kepptin, but, shove it up yer arse...Sideways .
Guess, you forgot about the Indians, huh?
You should get down on your knees and kiss the ass of every American veteran that you meet. You have THEM to thank for the freedom and free (shitty) healthcare that you enjoy.
Shitty health care?
How many people in your country, the self proclaimed greatest country in the world, are genuinely afraid of becoming ill, because they can't afford health care (shitty or otherwise)?
The NHS may have problems, but it's there for everybody, no matter what income bracket they're in.
And as for that other old chesnut.
Kiss your veterans arses?
Fuck you, you get down on your kness and beg forgiveness from every mother her lost her son, blue on blue!
Any debt we owed has been paid back with blood over the last three oil wars.
Now that that's out of the way, any of you veterans out there who aren't still under the covers, cringing with embarrassment at that jingoistic prick, I hope you had a good day...Especially the 30th in N.C.
I hate being bipolar...It's fucking ace!

Guess you forgot about:
India
China (where your people started the Opium War)
Kenya
South Africa
Aborigines in Australia
Ireland
Sudan
Nigeria
Botswana
Zambia
Pakistan
Bangladesh
Afganistan
Tanzania
Zimbabwe
Namibia
Iraq (where you were there far longer than we've been)
Jordan
Uganda
Ghana
Eritrea
Djibouti
Singapore
Burma
Don't talk to me about Indians in such a chastizing tone when your hands are far, far bloodier than ours. At its height your British Empire oppressed 2/5 of the entire world.

we have some of the lowest taxes in the world, one of the highest standards of living in the world, and we're 20% of the world's GDP with only 5% of its population. I think that says something.
Yep, it certainly does say something.

As I said before, our nation isn't perfect, and, if that's all you can come up with, then you need to seriously rethink your position. Besides that, maybe if we hadn't been spending 30% of our Federal Budget on defense during the Cold War to protect the ENTIRE Free World, we could have afforded national healthcare a long time ago.
(This is the first time I've gotten into a flame war on the internet. It's a lot of fun...lol.)
Let's take the time now to thank the United States for everything that it's given the modern world:
The airplane
Mass production
The telephone
Kimberly Devine
The integrated circuit
The internet
Taco Bell
Nuclear power
Television
Rock n' Roll
Star Wars
Microwave ovens
Moon landings
Nazi-free living space
Radio
Submarines
Plastics
Blue jeans
Coca-cola
Baseball
Las Vegas
AC electrical power
And who is the world going to come running to in 20 years when China starts gobbling up East Asia in a grab for resources? Great Britain? France? India? Russia? Germany? Japan? "No" to all of the above. You'll come running to us. We're not perfect, and we may stick our nose where it doesn't belong sometimes, and we may fuck up, but we're who you've got.
