@freemo I think american Politics are so primitive in their structures. These Thing alone is so backwards: They have only 2 real Parties. The Green Party can achieve nothing on a federal Level as far I know and it's the largest competitor in a long time, isn't it?
@thadodger Its actually not really about politics, thats just how they express it. Americans are extremely emotionally immature, even the older people. Politics is just how it manifests itself.
@freemo Generally yes! I always say the US Americans think they are good because they cut corners and invent new things - opposed to ol' Europe. Unfortunately this spirit fuels also widespread ignorance. They had a good Democratic System 100 Years ago, but they did not improve it really... Alone the point that they can have only 2 Parties functioning because of the system structures is so backwards! ;)
@thadodger We were a great group of people 100 years ago. Scholars open to debate on any issue and with critical thinking applied to every solution (almost)... Sadly that time is long since past.
@freemo you said it. did you read my other reply? if not it's interesting that you said '100 years ago' as well
