    I'm asking this out of ignorance. What else was included in your constitution in regards to freedom? Remember though that our constitution is old enough to drink in the United States while yours is kinda not. Our Constitution's great great grandkids can drink in the U.S. while your constitition kind can't.

    South Africa? Glad to see someone not AC. You never mentioned how you have more freedom but I'm still inclined to believe you.

    I'll take that as a no. Kinda sad reaction. So you're projecting a significant amount of other large economy's oppression on the U.S..

    The thing is, I don't feel a need to say horrible things about my country because I am allowed to say them. But go for it, happy September 11th, enjoy the freedom Americans' posses and talk trash about the United States.

    Venezuela is an excellent counter argument. They are becoming just as dictatorial and scapegoating the United States. But the current administration turns a blind eye to ideological equals. The embargo is not a contributing factor. We need to stop ignoring and forgetting Cuba and blast their human rights violations.

    ... a fucked up country full of paranoid war hawks and religious whack-jobs, that's about what you'd expect from america.

    Happy September 11th. If I wished to say those things about the United States I'd even be able to do so as a citizen. If you're an American then congratulations, you're in one of the only countries that you can do that. If you're not American I don't intend to stifle your freedom of speech, I just dare you to say that about you're own country.

    We're sorry but Cuban political prisoners were not available for comment.

    I'm sorry, only 1%ers own homes now due to overly stringent environmental laws that reduce labor and increase cost of living.

    I read a hilarious article in Sunset magazine that had rich winery owners worried that their poorer neighbors might allow fracking on their land and thus empower them. I practically heard echoes of the French Aristocracy complaining that the peasants were hunting on their land again.

    Cheap energy is transferring power to the poor. Some people hate that.

    Denialist research, I.e. scientific method, is in a state of McCarthyism. Legitimate research into the variables of the climate's temperature are either told to keep quiet about their findings or shut down. The reason? Because it's going against "settled"science. No one would ever get their denialist research published to be capable of receiving a Nobel, and they'd most likely be out of a job too. Just ask the scientists who wanted to find out the effects of something as important as clouds on the global climate.
