France is 9% and Spain is 16%. So that welfare state of theirs comes at a price. I literally found a job the first day I was looking in the US twice this year. Also Spain has a large part of Spain that doesn't even want to be part of the country anymore.
American's might not protest the same as Europeans (Alphamale has no idea what an unruly mob actually looks like.) because we don't really have that many problems. If our unemployment rate goes to 16%, you are going to see some social unrest here.
I'm basically in favor of most protests or riots, irregardless of what they are protesting. I like a little chaos, I think it's healthy for our leaders to be a little nervous, no matter the political party.
We should protest that which we do not agree with. Definitely. But I believe that all sides need to do so peacefully and not violently because a lot of the times, innocent bystanders get hurt for simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
