I was curious what MSNBC would be crying about and Brian Williams was their host....the guy that was disgraced from NBC for being a blatant liar is the lead for the most liberal outlet. Thats hilarious. How the F does he still have a job in media?

There is another trend, people in UK/Europe don't get married anymore, they just have children out of wedlock.
What are you talking about? Most countries with single payer health care have a higher share of their population working than America. Employment rates in America are quite low. These statistics can be found on the OECD website. No excuses to continue to be so uninformed in this day and age.

I don't think so. Most European countries work less than 35 hours a week.
Uniformed? I read that article in the wsj yesterday from a top professor regarding GDP growth. Try reading sometimes before you go online sprouting these ideas. Maybe you are the uninformed one.

So, because the man has a Southern accent, he's a simpleton? Oh, that's really American! I liked every word of his speech. (He wasn't reading it either)

And many have very high unemployment, and on strike 1/2 the year.

Exactly, they have the highest unemployment rates. USA is the third in growth behind China and India. No wonder we are the highest in GDP.
