Of course we aren't funny. Who needs wit when you have freedom?
Really? Real freedom for me is being independent but in the US 80% of the people in the nation only have 7% of the nations wealth, how free are they really?
Political freedom: two parties to choose from, really? Two?
Freedom of speech: after 911 put anything bad on the internet and the doorbell rings
Don't get me wrong I loved the US when I visited in the 80's and 90's, and there probably are still lots of nice places there. But it is so sad that the whole country changed in to paranoia and scared people after 911, I would not like to live there now, and really hope your country gets back the joy, humour and self confidence it needs.
