the most rabidly right wing Brit would probably be regarded as a commie pinko begging to be relieved of their life by their American counterpart.

You noticed that too?

What most countries consider basic public healthcare is considered to be an affront to liberty, democracy, capitalism, and the American Way by many Americans.

Wasting zillions of dollars on the military, prisons, law enforcement, surveillance of citizens, and defense of corporations is OK though.

Absolutely baffling isn't it. Believing in a small state but a gigantic military industrial complex with tendrils reaching every corner of the world Wink

Not to mention that they subsidize just about every industry there is. The US would struggle to fulfill the terms of the EU free market.

And when they discuss policy that is commonplace in just about every other country, they start talking about outlandish what ifs and slippery slopes. Other countries just look to where it's been done before.

The gays in the military debate was pure entertainment gold. Why check the experiences of the dutch and the swedes when you can barf out every brain fart you have to an international audience.
