We're selfish enough, just not lazy enough. legalize weed
Progress comes in waves, once a powerful or blunt reform is made political surface tension busts and changes pour through, (a marijuana law reform bill would be strong evidence some such thing had happened.) A massive left wing shift is in store for American politics, Same way the Gilded Age and Great Depression ended.
have hope, dear liberals

For being fat and lazy we do work more hours than many countries.
Re: Americans: We aren't selfish enough!
I know IT guys who get paid for sitting on their ass playing vidya games 6 hours a day. Every so often, they actually do their job though.
Re: Americans: We aren't selfish enough!
Here in Germany, you get payed for having a baby and for not working. I don't know why but yeah it just happens.
Re: Americans: We aren't selfish enough!
Americans aren't selfish to the extent it's thought of. What they are is ignorant, and that is the largest problem I have with my country. Plain and simple ignorance.
Re: Americans: We aren't selfish enough!
This article is dumb. Also false statement:
Quote:
You Americans work longer than anyone, pay all these taxes, make all these robots, and then not only don't you sit on your ass, but you get mad when anyone else does. You're fucking crazy.
The reason people get mad at those living off welfare is because we work our asses off to get somewhere in life and get a real job, when these tool bags do jack shit and they get a free check in the mail, oh yeah this check is made up of our tax money which we worked for.
Re: Americans: We aren't selfish enough!
I don't think this article is dumb. It's really just a clever way of saying "Shit. That's a lot of money you guys are spending on a war that like, more than half of you don't support."
Re: Americans: We aren't selfish enough!
No, our government is spending all this money. We would be quite content with keeping it to ourselves. Maybe we don't support it, or most of our other governments action but either we pay taxes or gtfo. Whether it's wrong or not, that's the way it is. If it really bugs you that much to pay taxes then you're quite welcome to leave. I on the other hand, am quite comfortable where I am.
