Riiiight, China's health care's system is collapsing while USA's health care system is so damn great. sure. I can't wait when you Americans finally begin living within your means and learn what that really means.
what about a gadget that actually improvs the quality of our lives instead of more gadgets about selling more useless junk, sorry products to the gullible masses?
to learn how to operate all the programs under Linux? Nobody mentions that part.
I like my UseNet. I have been comfortible using newsShark as my news-reader for years. Now I have to learn Pan.
I like my Nero. Now I have to learn a brand new program to make CDs.
I like my WinMX and eMule.
yes, there is WINE, I KNOW that.
now you are telling me I have to install and run WINE? More new programs to learn to install and run.
and Linux is far from perfect. KDE runs slower than Windows. It crashes and the programs crash too.
Sorry, but time equals money. I have to invest months to be able to run most of the programs I now run uner Windows.
let's look at your beloved athens and how they REALLY were:
had slaves who had zero or little rights, worked for free and were pretty much used for everything as very cheap labor
women werent allowed to vote; only the men were
let's now look at USA:
had slaves who had zero or little rights, worked for free and were pretty much used for everything as very cheap labor
women werent allowed to vote untill 1930s; only the WHITE men were; the minorities werent allowed to vote either
so yes Athens and USA are "democracy"!
You know, Marx said:
"history repeats itself - first as tragedy, then as farce."
Coupla years ago when USA was preparing to attack Iraq, N Korea said the same thing. Yet USA ignored them and invaded Iraq. Well we ALL KNOW what happened there.
Exact same thing us happening today, just change Q to N. USA will NOT do anything about N Korea. Again.
Most Americans must be total idiots or total hypocrates not to see how Bush is operating. Frankly I don't know which scares me more.
your responce was utterly meaninless.
ALl you did is spew forth more meaningless jargon
"USA is the land of opportunity" and talked about your life.
Actually I AM a USA citizen, so what?
And YES Iam making plan of going back to where I came from.
and I wasn't bitching and moaning about anything. I was trying to point out a few things about USA.
The topic is deep. It will take me a book to write about everything I wanna talk about.
this has been a facinating thread. Talking about China and comparing USA to China.
I was born and raised in Eastern Europe and lived there untill I was 18 under what was called a "communist" regime. I ate enough bullshot there to last me a life time or so I thought. I have lived in USA for the last 21 years. I have seen both sides of the coin. Now I KNOW much better and i can smell bullshit from a mile away. USA is no btter or worse than ANY other country in the world. US citizens live in a fantasy world. The majority are ill eduicated and ill equiped to do anything but to consume and consume some more.
Shurb used the word freedom 29 times in his speech. USA loves to use words such a s freedom and democracy.
Please. The expression "Money talks and bullshit walks" describes USA perfectly. In USA you get as much freedom as you have money. No money no "freedom". It is as simple as that.
You think USA doesn't censore its news? You think USA doesnt monitor its citizen's Internet access? You think there is no such thing as wage slavery in USA? Ask the "native Americans" who are spending their years in jail for fighting the USA government. They are the political prisoners in modern day USA. There is a conciderable number of them too. Remember Wounded knee? Maybe not.
Bush will be spending billions of dollars for Iraq and Aphanistan, while there is hundreds of mentally ill people in the USA who will be spending a cold night on the street in USA tonight.
Freedom? Freedom to do what? Consume more of the world's resources?
I have asked Americans what exactly they can DO that i cannot do anywhere else and they were hard to give me an answer. Most often I was told to go back where I came from if I dont like it in "here" meaning USA. What a logical responce.
USA is just another bully today. Maybe 200 years ago it did stand for something special but no more. I hope USA goes down as fast as possible. I hope the countries of the world unite against USA and fight it economically so USA will learn just how irrelevent it has become.
Go China, go!

in USA there is NO health care at ALL; you are pretty much on your own, so some even flawed is MUCH better than none.

and I bet KNOPPIX would have seen it. KNOPPIX CDs are essentail tool today. I carry one with me everywhere i go.

USA is: overextended, not producing anything except movies and music, and is basically living on credit from China's bank.
