[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 1480808, member: 56035"] talk is cheap. back it up with some articles or something. america's unemployment stats are fudged; reagan and clinton changed the way its calculated to magically drop the unemployment number. like if ur say "your not looking for work (because you've given up trying to find a job)" ur not counted as umemployed. if your part time earning minimum wage your employed. [URL='http://www.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/netcomp.cgi?year=2011']40.28%[/URL] of all workers make less than $20,000 a year in America today. heres the link: [url]http://www.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/netcomp.cgi?year=2011[/url] and im pretty sure 50% of americans earn less than $15/hr. which puts them just above the poverty line and goes with what i said above. Believe that! europe is more free because in most countries they dont have to do debt peonage to pay off student loans of which america is #1 in costs to go to college. why? debt is a way of social control + they are in the process of privatizing and corporatizing the education system in usa. europeans also get 5-6 weeks or more guaranteed vacation a year. its not left to the "market" where in america workers typically get 2 weeks or 3 if they are lucky. the healthcare system is a total joke in america: only country not to have healthcare as a right. medical bankruptcy is also the #1 reason for bankruptcy in america. i dont call that debt by "choice" haha. europeans have maternity leave. america has none. theres a long list. america is so :censored:ed up because they destroyted their left wing in ww1 and 1950s, and they have the most violent labor struggles of developed countries.
