One should NEVER leave the place of their birth.

Uh, I think somebody forgot to pass that memo to Christopher Columbus. Or to any of the colonialists to follow in the coming centuries.

Oops.

Don't worry. The hypocrisy of both sides of the aisle (as we Americans love to so strictly define things in left and right) is absurd.

With the right, the absurdity lies in the fact that right wingers will attack you for supposedly being un-American when you make certain comments, but then you'll find them later that day spending hundreds at Wal Mart, and then later that evening complaining about loss of jobs and foreign evils. I'm dumbing it down, but its pretty much that dumb in some cases.

Nothing over there is more free than the US & nothing is arguably better. Heck they are playing catch up even now with their laughable EU debacle, have fun, we dont need people like you anyway.
We don't really need Americans who try to laughably exile other Americans simply because they see how other societies may work better, according their own perspective.

The "ugly American" never understands the stereotype of the "ugly American" - which is typically indicative of uniformed patriotism, inflated narcissim and historical ignorance.

Germany is not 180 degrees from free. As an American, you do not hold the universal definition of what free is, so you are not to determine this.

USA only sped the eventual process.

Argentina would be good for you. There are still remnants of your great people down there.

Son, you are really an ungrateful moron. You have some serious bitterness problems down inside that I hope you'll discover and get help for. Many of us have gone through what you're going through but NONE of us would ever say that about our ancestors. Get some help, man.

America is at least free enough that anyone who doesn't want to live here doesn't have to.

I doubt the Nazi's that escaped down there are living the good life. Guilt is a bit*h and will ruin every experience of an otherwise rustic and lovely landscape.

That is indeed another aspect of truly "free"
