well, I have enough to be pointed as the “looser”, and representant of “socialism”, OK, there are many things that upset me in my government, but there are not more than these you can reproach to yours.

as a coutry of 550 000 km2 and being the 5th richest country in GDP rank, I can just be proud of the achievments of my compatriots, that are not all socialists BTW.

Plus, I am proud of my culture, including food and mode, architecture, landscapes… intellectuals blah blah, at least they exist ! even in a compassionate lefty eye, though they don’t agree all together, so the polemics make that the things move on.

while you’re looking backwards, when America could supply coca-colas and chewing gums to the “poor uneducated” world, it’s time to wake up, because the world doesn’t wait for you anymore, the Yuans are going to be the etalon money
