Before the USA, Britain and France, after a war that can only be described as "accidental", imposed a horrendously humiliating peace accord on Germany, which paved the way for Nazism, Germany was actually a highly flourishing democracy.
Historical fact #2:
The American war of independence was fought with French money, French wepons and, to a not insigifficant degree, French troops, in order to achieve French ideals.
So Losec (the no1 treatment for stomach ulsers) is not a Swedish* invention..?
Then again, we didn't invend silicon breast implants, I'll give you that...
*Sweden probably has the most extensive public healthcare system in the world.
Who didn't? Even Sweden* had a nuclear wepons program! Then we decided we were pacifists and canned it...
* For those of you not familiar with this bizare, self proclaimed world conscience; An itzi, bitzi, teeny, weeny, socialist monarchy (don't ask me how that works, please!? I'm trying to figure out myself...) in the sub-arctic parts of northern Europe, whos main exports are: Guns, cars and toilet paper.;-)
Since these guys didn't use jellybeans but photons, they used a fiber instead of an airplane. The spooky thing is not that if one bean is read, the other one is green. The spooky thing is that the information about the color travels faster than the spead of light (as a matter of fact, the transfer is instantaneous) which is why Albert found it spooky (mostly because it violates the principles of special relativity. But, then again, God DOES roll dice over his creation).

One name to find them, one name to bring them all and bind them...
Hear, hear!

Exactly!
It's an art!

Actually, broken down on passenger miles, it's the safest way to travel, on or off this planet...
Imagine what the world would be like if students didn't forget all these obvious wisdoms once they've gotten their MSc?
...surfing the web in peace.
Imagine all the people...
You are obviously American.
With the Russians, Europe would have traded one lunatic (Hitler) for another (Stalin)
We did! Atleast some of us... though, luckily, not my own countrymen.
Still, the truth remains: The USSR defeted Hitler, not the USA.

Once again, Welcome to old Europe!
I hate to be a show-off, but... ,-)
I believe you are confusing respect with fear.
That's what revolution is all about! Something most European countries have experienced more than once, one way or the other...

Now, who's being brainwashed by their own (slightly less, but still) repressive government?
Who didn't?

If the smart people moved to America, why are they now destroying it (and the rest of the world with it)..?
Explain that to an accountant/senior manager...
