If you don't like the state of things in the USA, get off your a*s and make sure that you are registered to vote. If not, go register! Do your homework on candidates, and cast an informed ballot in November. If you don't vote, you don't count.

America is the worst? I'm hoping this is hyperbole. Off the top of my head I can think of a country might be considered worse, one that has crushing poverty, ascribes to a system that assigns human beings to a life of being "untouchable" due to who they were born to and is dealing with honor crimes against women by men who are supposed to love them. I'm not denying America has serious issues but I find it remarkable that anyone would call us the worst without a modicum of jest. Think of this: you hate Trump? At least it can be said out loud or in print without fear of being locked away forever because you are dishonoring the "dear leader". That's gotta be worth something.

I hear you, Bob, but a number of these are from countries _other_ than the U.S. I vote w the 'Capitalism Ends the World' party.

the definition of "obesity" has changed. anyone who isn't skinny gets called obese.

They aren't mutually exclusive. My post was regarding America being the worst.

I understand your frustration and I noticed a lot of comments about America too. I'm not trying to justify those comments but I think the reason why is that America once was great and with the drastic changes in politics and everything that has happened lately it's.. Well, it's weird. I think the whole world is just too overwhelming right now and that confuses people so much that they just say stuff like "pfft, americans" or "well, that's America for ya". It's not right and it's not kind. I hope all this blows over sometime in the future so you can be proud of your country again, because America has also done a lot of good for the world! If it makes you feel any better, I'm pretty sure the Norwegian government is trying it's hardest to f**k over every single corner of our lives. It happened after the last election.

If you don't like it, do something about it.
