272. Man, you are such a....
I can't say what you are.

I don't CARE how many people leave this country and go to the US. That is their choice. It doesn't mean that your country, and mine, don't opress others for their own gain. It doesn't mean that somehow, because other people want to have a bunch of shit they don't need, that it's ok. It doesn't absolve ANY of us. Your nationalism is nauseating. And this is why we don't WANT you here, thank you VERY much.

And, I suggest you visit Cuba, talk to some Cubans, and do some reading outside of Mr McCarthys Library. Your points are weak.

My sister travels to the Turks and Cacos, and the Bahamas twice a year. She can't access the internet 97% of the time, and she's staying in 4 or 5 star resorts and hotels.

If you want to talk about awful governments, I could come up with a mile long list of US and Canadian atrocities that would turn your hair white. But, you want to compare apples to oranges, and I'm not in to mixing fruit.

You want to believe that the US is that much better, enjoy yourself in that. But, however you justify the excesses and greed and rape of resources, it isn't going away.
