Mane I hope that response wasnt directed totally at me.. I have been trying to be very nice in this thread and not make fun of people in the firstarticle.
The article you posted was full of extreme views, you cant get around them. Its basically saying that the USA is a facist country comporable to Nazi Germany.. Maybe you are offended at that viewpoint, as you should be, or you are offended that I point it out, but the author of that article is entirely comfortable in repeatedly drawing just such a comparsion - and that makes him an extremist. Furthermore the article he wrote spews with left wing bias and criticizm of the Democratic party for being too right wing these days- an intersting point of view as the leadership of democratic party has taken a sharp turn left from the bill clinton years - with far left leaders such as Nancy Pelosi and presidential candidate Howard Dean becoming more influntial. I'm sorry mane that article is little more than a left wing propaganda piece written by a disgruntled liberal college proffesor. You migh as well post something by Rush Limbaugh and you will get the same credibilty.
And as for you I thjink you are severly misinformed and just buy into vague left wing fantasies about canada. Like I pointed out their school per pupil spending is far lower than in America. And farnkly our hopeful emmigrants are just too naive - they view canada as some fanatsy caring left wing dreamland with nightly seances and teach ins. I'd love to see their reactions after a few years of looking for good employment or even dealing with a new set of social problems that I'm sure Canada must be dealing with as well. It is aprticularly intersting that 5-6 times as many Canadians a year are moving to the US as opposed to the otherway arounbd - thats even more astounding when you consider that the USA has almost 10 times the population...
So, and I do apologize for the cliche, if you think Canada is so great I suggest you go move up there right now - you're certinly free to do so, or at least until that evil tyrant Bush a wall around Amerika to keep everyone from running away to the bountiful lands up north...
