Thank you rb, I knew you had it in you.... where did you say you lived. I happen to like our way of life, sucky as it can be at times, it's still the U.S.A. the greatest place to live, of course I am bias, as most of the 300 million plus would seem to agree with me and the myriad more that continuously move here, they must be bias too, alas who am I in a sea of patriots, imho.
So the "accident" is our own fault, nice.... and our whining is useless because we voted in the people who are the system we cry about, nice.... why didn't you just say so to begin with, I am sure none of us realized this, as blinded by our self centered, corrupt, capitalism we must be, hummm? You know, I was doing well I thought, in understanding how you appeared to feel, but now I wonder if your whole content wasn’t more of a "I told you so". thumbing your nose at our government.
It is true, I am desperately angry at what I feel is a bunch of bureaucracy and plan old bs too, but I sure as hell don’t want to alter the free market of this nation just to “attempt” to insure the prevention of disasters like this, for in truth, to lose our way of democracy and laissez faire, to me, that would be the greatest travesty of all.
And I am not stupid to believe in my government or the people I elect into it, I would be stupid if I stopped believing in the system that has created my nation, that doesn’t change that they have really let me down here, but we will rally. This “accident” is another painful learning experience, but from it we will grow, together, stronger, because it is what we do in this country, we may fight like siblings, but we all still love this country, at least I do, and I still believe in the American people and the American way of life. Your right, we created it, damn, I never thought I would have to defend an oil spill in the process of defending my country, how did this go here, how can one blame an entire country of people who fundamentally believe in basic freedoms for every individual on earth, and suggest that that freedom alone is our own true corrupter? I must be confused, I'm sure I must be confused, right?
