One word - TV. Seriously, the news in America is so polarized it isn't even funny. Every time I go there I feel like I'm in a narrow alleyway, with two juggernaut trucks coming at me from each end, and there's nowhere else to go.

Quote:That George Carlin video got me to thinking. America is the land of free speech; yet, all television is censored. America is the land of the free; yet, the majority insists that theirs is the only law. America is the greatest country in the world; yet, most of the citizens act like the most uneducated fuckwits in the world - in fact, most Americans I know would be hard pressed to identify the world, on a map of the world. Is this an unfair assessment of America today?
