Yeah, because xenophobic flag waving is the major thing wrong with this country.

You make a big assumption that it's people who "wave a flag" that don't know that PR is US territory. What a foolish statement

it's a country that doesn't really care for it's citizens.

doesn't want to take care of everyone's health.
doesn't care about people killing each other with guns.
doesn't care about people's education.

what we are seeing is unobstructed and uncontrolled capitalism over a long period of time.

people want more than they have - that's human nature and that's what people in the US are trained. which means it's survival of the fittest.

What? Don't you believe in the intrinsic value and truth of social Darwinism?

What about countries that don't mind killing people with airplanes and box cutters?
What about countries that don't mind killing people with rental trucks?
What about countries that don't mind blowing peoples heads off with explosive necklaces, or beheading them on youtube?

What about a country that doesn't mind killing 57 million babies over the past 40 years, mostly for the sake of sexual expedience and "rights"?

You teach a few generations that there's no such thing as transcendent truth, and then you complain that no one's living like there is such a thing as transcendent truth.

I mean I already pay about half my check in income tax. That's before sales tax, gas tax, cellphone tax, tolls, tickets, etc. how much more do we have to give to show you we care?

And where are you Canadians going to go once our healthcare system goes down the socialist rabbit hole? No more driving south of the border, you'll have to wait a year for an appointment like everyone else. Utopia!
