New Jersey!?  *barfs*  No offense, but I hate New Jersey (I got friends from there who also hate it)

I like

Washington State

Vermont

New Hampshire

Maine

Texas

Alaska

I used to like California, back in the 1980's Governor Wilson dynasty.  Not anymore though, it's like a 3rd world nation here. *cackles and fires an AK-47 into the air*

Connecticut used to be nice, until those blasted New Yorkers invaded and destroyed it, like a virus, or a Borg or Aparoid infection.

It's too depressing to see that TV program,  I already know how great America was, compared with today's America.

How did we lose our way?

[EazyIN]

THAT and Hist. Channel Lies. They lied about JFK and said if he didn't "do it" with another woman every 2 days he'd have migrains. I ain't trustin Hist. Channel. NEWS channels and JFK's family proved them wrong

[Guest FoXXX]

If America was a decent country, I might watch it

[CrypticQuery]

Is this some kind of documentary, movie, etc? (Sorry, don't watch TV or listen to the radio as much anymore) Georgia has to be my favorite state 

[Guest FoXXX]

Iowa is my favorite state

Only state I've ever been in :)

[Guest Julius Quasar]

Awww, sorry to hear that, man!  If I ever get the $$$, I'd like to fly you

out to Cali and show you the ruins of this former great republic we once were.

Sounds like a propergander film to me. Let's be honest, america doesn't have much history or at least anything interesting. I doubt you could learn anything interesting like no one invented the wheelbarrow until the romans left britain.

On the whole "America sucks" topic, I am choosing to quote my Government teacher.

If you don't like it, I'll pay for your ticket. Get out. Or whine less, seriously. There are far worse situations you could be in. People die trying to come to this country to get OUT of far worse situations.

Yeah, we aren't as great as we used to be, but we're apparently still better than everyone else.

True

The reason america is seen as bad is the arrigance. The once leading super power has fallen, rather then do the right thing like the Brits did when the empire fell, they are scream, flailing and throwing their toys out of the pram.

They are also jingoistic, requiring anyone who wants to make money in the west tailor their products to their taste, as Euros will buy american, but americans will not buy anything they see as not american.

Heres a vid that explains the former point better.

I love that baby pram analogy, because it's so freaking true. I smiled when I read it, thank you for making my day. :D

Just because I live here doesn't mean I have to like it.

I'm not going to elaborate on why I hate this place, as it's just going to get political.

[Steve]

I don't get what's the deal with this, best living rates? better than everyone else?,  said titles surely do not belong to the US, they belong to some small countries in Europe, however, I do believe the US is chosen over those countries cause it's located "closer" to the third world and "in develop"  countries, or just because the US is more accessible.

I never said "America Sucks", nor did I mean to sound like I was saying that.

What I am saying, and/or meant to say was "It's a f***ing shame, what America is now, compared to a great country it once might have been".  We'd be on VH1's "Where are they now?" of nations, right there with England, France, and many, many other nations.

The main thing I like about America is the 2nd Amendment! <3

[Guest DRL]

I do not want to be mean guys, but the United States

is just a country, NOT America itself.

America is a continent.

I mean, duh, what about Canada, Brazil, Mexico,

- and well- EVERYONE else?

Take me, for example. I am from South America,

which in turn means that I am from America...

Yet, I have never been in the U.S.

I have nothing against the U.S., exept that I find

it´s imperialism annoying (like the invasion on Iraq)...

But otherwise, I think it is a country like any other.
