@jaykuo I'm sorry but the U.S. is not united and is a failed state. A cult of individualism raised to a national ideology has not worked out.
@danirabbit you also have people that don't realise the personal is political and to be 'apolitical' is political .. it should be left in the past with the "I don't see colour" brigade.
