Canada's government problems stem from an appointed senate and unequal representation.

That pretty much summed up Canada's problems perfectly, in a single sentence. Well Done.

Even I won't argue with that.
I think we should also have mandatory voting like in Australia.

I am not disagreeing with you but the idea of this thread it to come up with reasons for or against your statement.

The idea was to prove or disprove. Whether or not the posters wherein stayed on topic is another debate.

Actually, this was the former USA is Awesome thread. The USA debate thread died off long ago. After the hitlers took over, I just changed it to this.

either way simply stating the USA is awesome really isn't sufficient. Tell us why, this thread was awesome when it was going.

By the way nice reel big fish referance with tha Avi+tagline.

I'll be the devil's advocate.
The USA sucks because
- it's like a farm, everyone's being bred to be fatter and fatter.
- You guys screwed up the world economy
- You guys are to blame for every geopolitical problem in the Middle East right now
- America is polluting the world too much.
- Cowboy presidents can't admit when they are wrong.

This is the USA is Awesome thread not Debate: USA so this really shouldn't be here but i'll play devils advocate too.

People arn't being bred to be fatter and fatter its more a result of the corparation and constant advertising.

The rest of the western world had no gun put thier head and told to follow the usa's banking and loan model.

The USA is not the soul reason for the problem in the middle east you can also blame the UN britain (Britain more than anyone really) and all the countries fighting.

America is a major polluter but so are Canada, China, Brazil, India, and britain.

False, of course many Americans are fat but that's such a rude generalization.

And that's why we elected Obama.

be better than the ones you hate.

By retaliating with a responce thats lacks facts and substance you look just as bad as the person whom you are posting against.

Vince you know your stuff explain why he is wrong just dont tell him he's wrong.

I get sick about it too, well not so much the anti-American sentiment (understandable, though not in my opinion correct, from an international perspective), but just uneducated, baseless statements. Like people hate Bush, but they don't know why.
Same with most things but especially with anti-american-ness.
