The europe comment was a politcal diatribe I probably should not have gone into but I was incredibly angry and it was much safer to vent here than onto the student. Being an American I see most of europe as socialist and leaning communist. In most european countries to my way of thinking you don't really have to work to survive and that is the way I see America going. The students don't try to learn since they expect the government to take care of them when they don't find a job, or that they will be able to make enough to survive on a job that doesn't require education (bus driver) when that used to not be possible in this country (and shouldn't be). Just my opinon of course but that was where the last bit was coming from. Let the flood of "you are evil capitalist scum" begin...

Oh question for the swede...why in the hell is your country spending tax money supporting porn...I mean they call it feminist porn (oxymoron much) but still thats a bit much.


Are you saying it shouldn't be possible for a bus driver to earn enough to feed himself or a family? WTF?
So everyone has to be become a professor now or what? Very realistic.

Also, you don't wanna go and compare America's way of life to that of any scandianavian country, because they pretty much kick USA's butt in each and every regard (health care, living standards, crime, education, you name it).
Yeah yeah, taxes bad, socialism bad, helping the little man out bad, we get it.

You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.
