Ok.. I'm astounded.. You have super tax on petrol then

No, just a very greedy government; actually that is Super Tax!

Okay, I shouldn't have said free... but rather...umm... universal - those that need the attention can get it without the doctors asking for money first. You still need to wait in line but I truly think our system is one of the better.

I think Social Medicine is better than any other system I've heard of, especially our nuts system.
We've got people with power that don't want prices to be lower though, and their buds that own the pill places have more influence then..well every person in America dying and going hungry because they are told by doctors "Buy these or live miserably/die."

The other day gas costed $1.60 per gallon here in Oklahoma. Have to love the heartland where they don't quite have the ability to rack the prices up by the 50 cents more everyone pays on the East and West coasts. A simple economy matter that I won't go into...

at least America is making advances in the overpopulation problem, and hey, if people earn a nickle by doing so, what the hey.

also, in LA, there's 2.4 cars for every person within city limits. thank god its chic to drive hybrids, or we'd be in trouble. go leonardo dicaprio, GO!

Gas Prices, I really hope you don't mean Petrol...

So many American's piss and moan about Petrol prices over there.. But it's SO cheap.

Yes, compare it with the prices in Great Britain and I am sure people will think otherwise about their petrol prices!

The corruption in America... well... Bush, McDonalds, The Patriot Act, US Secret Service, SUVs and Bush!

Of course, I might simply be going by the anti-American propaganda.

P.S. I know I said Bush twice!

Lets convert howmuch South Africans pay per litre of petrol..

$1 US per litre
£0.5 per litre
Euro 0.7 per litre

These are all rough estimates.. not on the dot calculations.

But thats a lot of money for fuel.

In sweden we pay 1.40 $ US Dollar for 1 litre... Almost 1 € Euro
Please cry about petrol prices... I really wish to hear it.

how about our criminal justice system what the heck ever happened to innocent till proven guilty??

[Go Away]

what the heck ever happened to innocent till proven guilty??

Well... it never existed, so nothing happened to it.
That would require people to give a damn and *gasp* give someone the benefit of a doubt, which they'll never.

The US defenitatly has problems, but much of your list is laughable. Also, you probably shouldn't say this country sucks when you know next to nothing about other countries.
