Opinion of the President

"They're all too busy trying to come up with ways to discredit each other instead of dealing with the issues at hand,,,what a zoo!" -Tinman

That's a great observation, I agree 100%.
I also agree that we are very lucky to enjoy the freedoms we have in this country.

I've tried a couple times to formulate reasonable arguments to the effect of

"let's not berate people in other countries for their valid opinions, we will never understand how hard they work for us to have orange juice in the morning,"

but I got too mad each time to be rational. I don't advocate a socialist world where we put flowers in our hair and dance in the streets, but I advocate basic human rights for all countries we trade with.
