You're right. On the internet-we take what we get. It is not a democracy,
just as you said. The US is, however, and if it works the way it should, when things aren't going well, it can be changed by its citizens, and that is what I see might be about to happen soon. But it's not an anarchic society (in general), so it needs to take time to do it in an orderly way. It doesn't happen "NOW", it is a process. There is no perfection. If people want perfection they need only to die and go to their idea of heaven, if they have one. If they don't, well, they'll just have to look at it like the internet-and take what they get. But- Richard needn't have said: "No one likes people who are full of them selves ie the USA." It implies ALL of the people in the USA are full of them selves. He could have stopped with just "people who are full of them selves", who could not agree with that? He also said "Learn to spell english properly, if your gonna steal a language atleast learn to use it properly." But earlier we were belittled for NOT "stealing" the metric system. Silly idea-stealing a language (and his statement there was not exactly used properly either ie spelling, grammar). [View Quote] --- Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
