I agree with a little of what everyone says ... I think that people have the right to complain, but it is pointless babble if they don't use their dissatisfaction as a catalyst for change. Are there better places to live? Probably, but we live here so let's make the best of it. There is only one perfect place, and we wouldn't be posting on this message board if we were there. Regardless of where you live, you can find things to complain about. Sometimes the best way to learn that the grass isn't greener elsewhere is to move to another place. You, Mr. Metal, have had the experience of a country where people live in constant danger, hunger, etc. That is probably what makes you a little more appreciative of the freedoms that you have here. There is nothing wrong with that!
this is what i will never understand..if you hate america so much..then get on the first boat on the way out...spend a few weeks elsewhere and we will see how much you will bitch then!!
