Gazpacho:
Now, please, let`s give up kidding. Do you mean what you say?
Have you ever heard about public healthcare in, say, Holland? Do you know what kind of opportunities do minorities and poor people have in Scandinavian countries, Finland, Iceland and all that?
Have you ever heard how WEALTHY, THRIVING AND CULTIVATED Singapore is?
Did you tune on your TV set in 1992, during the L.A. riots? or later, when Cincinatty was set ablaze? Or later, in Seattle...? forget it
It is great to love one`s country. But being realistic is ok, too. America has its own problems, that`s all.
And nope, I know THIS is not paradise, either. But I would never try to convince anyone that I live in Wonderland...
