re: #790 acwgusa

I’ve come to the conclusion that the Europeans really don’t understand us at all when it comes to the role of government. We don’t rely on our governments to give us stuff, we have a fundamental distrust of government, and for good, solid historical factual evidence for reasons why we distrust government.

To Europeans, U.S. Universal Health Care Is Long Overdue

And it’s not even Universal! It’s a uniquely kludgy system only the U.S. could slap together!

There is a serious cultural barrier that makes it hard for them to understand where we’re coming from. The anti-American angle taken by their media doesn’t help either.
