You can't argue with facts. The US is number one.

Lol this is funny.

he talks about America being #1 economically but doesn't America have the highest amount of debt too?

Luciana · March 20, 2015, 03:05:55 PM

I wish I could live in the 80's too.

The debt is pretty irrelevant man.

Er surely it's better to have no debt? Or at least a small amount not 18 trillion dollars

He's got a lot of good points and citations for what leads to an ultimately meaningless conclusion: so what if America is exceptional in those aspects? Is this really just a retort against people claiming America is stupid?

And seriously, measuring our "cultural exceptionalism" by looking at the top grossing movies worldwide...c'mon.

This seems to be about as deep as all his videos that I have seen.

If that's all you get from his videos you're pathetic.

Actually.. America's culture is what exactly? I think our culture is shit.. We won't allow ourselves to have one, unique, genuine culture.. and this melting pot has and is proven to be a failure.

I'd take a melting pot culture over a single, boring, same-as-everyone-else culture.

What's your culture?

"The US is the best country because we're the police force of the world and we have money."

lmao okay. While I appreciate the US culture of placing extreme emphasis on individuality and liberty, you're far from perfect. Healthcare going down the shitter and the fact that 42% of the population believe in creationism are just a few I can list from the top of my head.

Forgewolf · March 20, 2015, 05:37:41 PM

A lady from the UK made Harry Potter
A man from another country made Lord of the Rings

America only funded them.

Except your clearly mud-slinging quote was never stated in the video anywhere. And believing in creationism isn't inherently bad - it doesn't mean those people reject science. I know many who think science is the way God works etc. To say this is bad is just being a buttmad atheist who knocks on theists.

And yeah, with Obamacare the US healthcare is quickly going down the shitter.

It already was before his evil healthcare system. I wouldn't say a good healthcare system is one that puts you into debt for going to the hospital for something. Breaking Bad would be a whole different series if Walter White lived in Canada.

A large part of excessive costs can be attributed to how many stupid lawsuits get filed to doctors. They need insurance to cover their asses in case it happens, and they also run unnecessary tests on their patients to cover the bases to lessen the chance of being sued over something stupid.

I almosted wanted to sue my doctor for doing unnecessary testing. They told me what physical condition I had, when I already knew what it was. What I wanted to find out is what was causing it. Was it a virus, a parasite, was it a bacteria.. they got nowhere with all my testing, so I just ignore the issues. A waste of $2k for nothing.. and I only make $9k a year.

You can thank that to sue happy America. Doctors usually run those tests so they can't be sued for something they missed, even if it was something they weren't looking for.
