But of course, we in the States will never model what we do on anyone else, 'cause we're just so exceptional!

USA! USA!

It is time for this country to CHANGE. those who DO work should be paid more and those who sit around in offices should NOT be paid high wages.

Only when the war on drugs and true justice for public crimes are given out to those who are GREEDY will society no suffer.

Everybody knows foreigners can't come up with any good ideas. Good ideas only come from think tanks like The Heritage Foundation and The Cato Insitute. Next you'll want us to start eating foreign foods like Shrimp Fettucini with Alfredo sauce or Crème brûlée. Not me! I'm sticking to good old American hamburgers and French fries. Gah! I meant Freedom fires.
