it's all soaked with corruption. greed is the prevailing attitude.

democrarcy in the the US is a thing of the past. a democracy with two parties, seriously? and the one with the most money wins. the system is a joke. and i think no other western nation has such an effective brainwashing machinery going to keep their people uninformed and distracted.

while at the same time i have a feeling that more and more people are waking up from the american dream and realize they are stuck with a system that only acts in favor of the 1% and abuses all the rest.

apart from that the US is an amazingly beautiful country and there are lots of awesome people over there.

The way we resoundingly said 'Hell No!' to the Syria thing did a lot to restore my faith in our population. This even when a lot of people bought the crap about 'the Butcher of Damascus' and his proposed use of sarin to 'kill his own people.' Of course a lot of us (and seemingly a vast majority of clued in analysts world wide) had this pegged as obvious bullshit all through the media phase of the project.

Probably the most interesting thing was the dis-connect between our government and the attitude of the population. Seems that Rice, Kerry, and their ilk thought they it would be no problem to herd us into yet another war and received an unexpected bitch-slap. (And an equally devastating one from Great Brittain which was nice to see...to bad the French are such scum, but at least their influence is minimal.) The unfortunate side effect of this is that now it is clear that a somewhat more powerful persuasive tool will be needed for the next run. The effects of 9/11 operation are obviously getting a bit long in the tooth.
