Why the USA isn't the greatest nation on Earth

[Arising_uk]

Where does a bastard like you get off disparaging the likes of me? You only worked for the government, right, the people a normal person wouldn't ask the time of day from for fear of getting the wrong answer. End of story, pal.

What work is it that you do bob?

Greatest is just a matter of opinion. But I do believe more people want to migrate into this country than out of it.

So what Hollywood, 'USA' movie is that excerpt from?

No idea, just thought it a good clip as very rarely does is the American heard, it's normally just Yanks.
Shame, as I'd like to watch it!

From what I heard, it surely stands to reason, that the U.S. of A. is not finished yet. ...

Who said it was?
A lot of people, have certainly insinuated as much, while some have come right out and said it. Feeling guilty?

Depending of course how much stock one places in the screenplays of Hollywood movies.

Well you voted one president.
Will you stop with such assumptions, no it was you that voted for him, which is just as absurd.

Actually I've always liked that actor.
But seriously, it's those currently in charge that are responsible, it could be heard in the statistics he referenced, if they in fact ring true, and without checking, I for one believe they do.

And yet elsewhere you've argued that the whole human race would be responsible for the actions of a few?
Hey you're the one that says you've been fighting such a thing for all these years, and look how far it's gotten you. Time for a reset at the hands of those that have allowed it to be the case, because if they didn't deserve it, it wouldn't be the case, now would it? Hypothetically, of course.

One thing is very apparent, and that is that you're much like Bob, in that you just love to fight, even if it is with windmills.

Not true. I'm also generous with praise too when I think it's warranted.

OK, you have been generous with me on a few occasions, or at least you've tolerated my words. And I've loved you every time it's been the case, only because I love it when a woman is sweet to me. Or as sweet as she can be, in some cases.

Meh!

About what?

Just using 'you' for America, I assume you are American? Still, America voted a Hollywood actor for President so Hollywood appears to be no hold-back and most likely a bonus in such a media-driven culture.

Hey you're the one that says you've been fighting such a thing for all these years, and look how far it's gotten you. ...

Nope, I've said I've protested in the past and in one instance it worked and the rest don't seem to have made much difference but then I wasn't that naive to think it might, I protest to express my feelings about something, if enough agree then things change but if they don't then then don't, that's democracy for you.

So what will you be doing about it?

Meh!
So you don't like movies, yet you use one to make your point, yet it was fictional, making your point what, yet you could care less either way? Or how else should I understand Meh!

About what?
You tell me!

Kinda, depending how one defines one.

Still, America voted a Hollywood actor for President so Hollywood appears to be no hold-back and most likely a bonus in such a media-driven culture.
Well I didn't vote for any actor for president. So your point failed. At least from my perspective.

Seemingly not much real caring there, so one would wonder why you might spend the time in the first place. Just to pass the time, heh?

So what will you be doing about it?
Watching as it may or may not happen, but to do anything means I must have my hands in it, and I really don't want any part of it. What would you think I should do, since you seemingly believe I should, or so you've said as much in the past, waving your flag of attempted doings, apathetically it would seem? So???

In that case my home country is the best in the world. And not many people around here think it is. But then, Socrates thought he wasn't that great either.

Late answer:
Worse. Central Scandinavia. and now they go elsewhere, things have changed a little since that post.

The greatest nation on earth is the one...
