Display:
When will us silly Europeans acknolwedge that a nation is run for the sole benefit of those that have the means to take care of themselves. Welfare should only be for the rich and powerful and not for the ordinary working people.

The concept of social cohesion and solidarity are so alien to the US mentailty that even with the US economy is a mess, the largest prison population in the world, the largest gap between rich and poor in the West, failing education and healthcare system, the media and politicans are still spewing the same old story.

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.
