I agree with you on your prior posts, but not this one. Sure we Americans have plenty of dysfunctional problems, but no more than any other nation.That's true.
There's a "good" reason for this. Americans (collectively speaking) are raised in a nation that is similarly dysfunctional as families of alcoholics, drug addicts and violent child abusers. Their children learn to respect fear and aggressive retaliation if they do not stand by their parents. They are required to lie in order to stay loyal to the family.
Now, imagine a whole nation of these under-educated and tormented citizens (with the NSA able to find out how many times you take a pee every day) walking on eggshells for fear of being accused of being anti-American, America "haters", Communists, Socialists or "rocking the boat". Have you ever been to the US? Have you noticed all of the American flags displayed in all of the govermnet buildings and planted on the front lawn of so many houses? Why do think that is?![]()
I believe our failure to accept the truth is much more the result of continuous and massively distributed propaganda by the government, corporate media, academia, and Hollywood.
