The United Totalitarian State of America – Thank god I’m European
 

What kind of democracy suppress the freedom of its people like this latest legislation on gambling? Billions of dollars are being spent on a wars to superinpose the US value system upon the rest of the world, with names like operation freedom.

When it comes to the true preaching’s you can but stagger in fear, as religious right put their beliefs into state law. America is just another face of the Taliban state, religious extremist writing law and telling its people how to act. Today I am proud to be a Swedish citizen, our system is far from perfect but at least we have true freedom.

So much for everyone who laughed at Michael Moore, etc. and went to war happily ever after. Today I'm proud not to be an American, though I really think your country is really beautiful and the people living there deserve better than this. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

You've been totally fooled the past few years, where does it stop?

I actually love America, except for the freedoms we take for granted in Sweden like:

Buying a beer at age 18
Having sex at age 15
and most important being allowed to Play Poker without any government interference.

Who will us Europeans take money from now? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Seriouly guys, I'm hoping things take a turn for the better for you. I told my wife about this and (from a European perspective) she just about summed it up:

"In a country where it's legal to carry a firearm this is absolutely ridiculous."

Totally fooled? I don't think so. Many, Many, people here have been digusted with the Government LONG before this. For instance, see WAR. Or the total lack of concern for the enviorment. Torture. Envasion of Privacy. The list goes on, and on, and.... But yet, it seems we're stuck between a rock and hard place right now.

Yes we can hold pistols in our homes with 4 young children but we can't play $.50/1 limit hold'em because it ruins families. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Usa is the western Al Qaida and christian conservatives are the plague.

A bit harsh. In Europe we are seeing the increased use of surveillance cameras, computer tracking, etc. Our Justice Minister in Ireland wanted to ban all land based gambling. He was overruled. Once a Federal Europe is in place, we can expect similar legislation. After all, any ruling elite feels the need to control its subjects.

Despite all our so called advancemnet, human civilization hasn't changed a whole lot since the Illiad. There's a small 'intellectual culture' who thinks they know what everyone should be doing; a small 'political culture who tells everyone one what they can and can't do; a small 'warrior culture' who doesn't really care what anyone thinks or says; and the bulk of the population who complains about all three but doesn't have any power to do anything about it.

Why do I get the feeling you (and all the other bashers in this thread) absolutely LOVE a massive, collective-responsibility enforcing government, despite the latest swings against your interests?

Re: The United Totalitarian State of America – Thank god I’m European
 

I emigrated to America from eastern europe with my parents to escape the corruption of new "democratic" mafia conrolled government that followed the fall of the soviet union. While living in USSR I was jelaus of the amrican way of life mostly jelaus of the freedom. The more I lived here in the the US the more my view of the land of freedom cahnaged for the worse. I realized that this was a land where a politician can lie on TV(WMDs), where the super rich are untouched by the law and where the word FREEDOM is reduced to a propaganda pitch to make the hicks die for Bushes oil money. Only the rich and privileged by birth in the US are trully free. Just like the extermly corrupt Russian government which the Russian mafia uses to rob Russians of Russian oil and natural resources the US government is essentialy doing the same thing . The government is a mafia if they cant get a piece of the action they will kill the action. I just drank a bottle of Goose and I'm rambling but I feel like I just got FIRED, we all did. I decided to leave this country its not what I hoped it to be. It's ironic that there is more freedom in Russia that there is in the US. Granted the US is much more wealthy but its loosing the strongest of its pillars of society, FREEDOM, yes its dissapiring before your eyes if this ban will not open your eyes I dont know what will. I fucving hate the United States of America government. Even a seemingly perfect system like the American Democracy has its Achilies heel. Egypt fell, Greece fell, Rome fell, and I dont know where my drunk ass is going with this but I'm sure the US is not exempt from faith. I decided today to finish my school in europe since the only way I can really pay for my education is from poker. I hate being FIRED and I never thought congress could change my life so much. I always hoped this was gona blow over but it blew up. OH, well its time for a change maybe it will all be for the better.
