Example - You think "neo-cons" are a nefarious influence in the U.S. What nation(s) have no neo-con influences?
T%here is no nation on earth "good enough" to justfy America's emulation thereof - in anything save micro-issues.

Aka the New Deal/Great Society era.

Viking, why are you flooding this thread with youtube videos? Media culture has nothing to do with how great the US is, or was. That's all popular culture
