powerful? most likely, influential? highly doubtful. Right now everyone (90% of the rest of the world) hates the U.S. right now. I know you dont see the hatred there, but i even see it here. people are pissed off your government keeps starting needless wars and then you idiots come to Canada looking for soldiers to fight the bullshit war your gov. started.
Yes, we are the most influential. In a good and bad way, unfortunately we are influential with our drug policy around the world. Also we are influential with our capitalist system. 90% of the world hates us? Find me a link to that statistic please, a real one. That being said, who the fuck cares? I don't care what the world thinks of my country, they can kiss my ass cause I love it here. Do you know how many billions of dollars we give to other nations, how many airplanes fly over poor countries and just drop much needed supplies and food? No you don't know cause you are ignorant. We fight the needed wars, son. The U.N. doesn't have the balls but we do.
I wouldnt know, I was went to school in the U.S.
To bad you didn't pay attention then.
But one thing I do know is that Canada never had full fledged slaves like America did for so long. And when the African decided to run from that shit country where do you think they came?
Quakers from Canada helped them escape evil America.
Again, who abolished slavery?
Truman was a dipshit. Most U.S. preidents are dipshits.
Why was Truman a dipshit? Do you even know anything about him? Or do you just say stupid shit like that cause you are stubborn and ignorant? You are one of those people who have one mindset and stick to it no matter what. You are immature and hateful. Like a brat. And most of our
presidents are great leaders and new age thinkers.
Is that so? and what exactly is the reason the war ever started?
History Lesson Time!!!
World War II was initiated after Hitler's rise of power in a newly formed Nazi Germany. Germany annexed Austria and Japan's expanded into Manchuria then into China. Britain warned Hitler to cease his hostilities.
England's Prime Minister Chamberlain got Hitler to sign the
Munich Pact which basically promised Germany would not continue expanding. This treaty was "not worth the paper it was written on". Another example of you how you cannot negotiate your way out of something like this. (Does UN and Iraq sound familiar?)
With Germany blatantly refusing the pact and attacking Poland, officially World War II begun. The United States did not enter the war until Japan, who was crippled energy wise from the US/Japan embargo, launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii in an effort to knock out the U.S.'s navy in one fell swoop. The U.S. declared war on Japan and due to the web of alliances (the Axis), Germany declared war on the United States thus entering the US into both the European and Pacific theaters.
thats funny, when I lived in the U.S. I met MANY people that claim the civil war to still be waging today.
Can you comprehend that? Think about it hard
Who the hell are you talking to? Dumb people thats who. Maybe that is where you get your information.
Not ALL over the world. And shit, the U.S. caused that depression like they are causing the recession that is happening now!
Okay, not ALL over the world if you want to count non civilized countries. But everyone with an economy felt the Great Depression. The United States farming output was severely hit by a natural disaster called
The Dust Bowl which displaced hundreds of thousands of people. This hurt the economy was well as the overspending in the Roaring 20's. However the U.S. was not the only one to have over stressed the global economy in the 30's. Most heavy industry nations were in an economic decline.
The french didnt get you into anything you lying sack of shit. The U.S. could have pulled out at any time (like maybe when people were in uprise about it) but they REFUSED to. Big difference.
Oh yes they did, silly chuck.
Everyone after World War II forfeited their territories around the world. Everyone except France, they kept theres and mostly lost them too. The non-communist French owned the State of Vietnam from 1858.
The First Indochina War was between France and Vietnam. After being pushed out the French requested first our air support, which was given by Kennedy (democrat). Also, communism was pushing into Vietnam and the U.S. fighting the Cold War made it a priority to halt global communism, and thus launching us into the Vietnam War.
And FYI you undereducated ignorant prick, France French and Quebec French are totally different. And no, not half, not even close.
Getting a temper there chucky? Of course I acknowledge there is a difference in France french and Canada french. The only thing worse than a Frenchman is a French Canadian.
All you are is a big shit-talker, fuck you homeboy, U.S. is a shit hole compared to Canada,, and I know this from Living in both over 20 years a piece.
Your the shit talker here, chucky.
I love seeing you get so mad.
YouTube - Canada Sucks
Oh ya, fuck you too.
Honestly, I now have family living in Canada, I don't mind them really. Its the U.S. hating ignorant stupid preteens who know NOTHING of history yet talk a big game piss me off.
And that just shows how fucking stupid you are
Oh the irony. Can you list me, even 5, of the policies Bush has enacted? How about his economic plans (shot down by democrats), healthcare, social security, energy plans, ect that he has done, that were actually brilliant ideas but Congress is so liberal and anti-Bush they will veto everything just out of spite. Petty. Like you.
This once agains shows how fucking stupid you are. Canada has one of the largest industries of forestry,, much larger than the U.S.
We also have a tonn of untapped oil in albetra. Citizens there dont even pay provincial taxes the province is doing so well!
We also have the largest fresh water supply in the world!
Cool. You got trees. I guess that makes Canada the greatest. Wait..
We have alot of oil too. We just aren't allowed to tap into it cause of the liberals. Do you see where I am going with this argument? (and you are on the same level of importance as Jamaica, get over it)
I'd say thats power. We just know not to abuse it. That way we dont have people blowing up our buildings.
Makes sense. Dont piss other countries off, dont get blown up.
Thats not power. You don't have power. Because you don't have power, you don't have an opportunity to misuse it. Unfortunately, we have made some mistakes and wrong choices but this country is still great.
Do you think the U.S. is the only one to have been hit by terrorist attacks, in the last 10 years even? Because we are so big and mean and everyone hates us. Think again, idiot. Do some research and find out all the embassies, official buildings, and subways that have been bombed by terrorists.
So do I. And I see a history of a country fucking up time after time. Still havent learned either.
Obviously you don't. You love to argue for the sake of arguing.
I know my history, you aren't going to win this one with me, junior.
Iraq had to be done. U.N. wasn't going to do it, after 10 years of threatening, negotiating, and pleading, didn't do anything about Saddam and his weapons program. Also, Iraq continually broke the cease fire treaties from the first Gulf War by shooting SAM missiles at non-military American aircrafts. Should we just ignore that shit?
Soon to be added to the big list of blunders in the U.S. history book.
Just adding another victory to the countless others.
You are getting desperate I see. Splitting hairs I see. Ha okay....... but rome would LEVEL THE U.S. in current times. All I am saying.
No they wouldn't. You are comparing Apples to Oranges. Rome isn't going to take of the U.S. with their praetorian guard. And if Rome was allowed to continue into modern day you have...ITALY!! Rome was powerful in 200 B.C. we are powerful 1949-present.
We can safely say the U.S. is more powerful than Rome by our world presence and technology.
and you can also go to just about any country and be hated.
Canada can go to just about any country and.. well.. not be hated.
This is your only argument. Fine, if you want to be popular then whatever makes you happy. I don't give a flying fuck how other people view the U.S.. I can still sleep at night. Jealous haters..
Hope you learn something from this Chuck and think twice before opening your mouth and proving to everyone you are an idiot.
