You can't blame the government for the obesity. Lazy ass people can't lose some fucking weight. We store our own ICBMs, mostly on submarines actually. The first one is wrong. There is so much support you can get. The government gives money to people who are too fucking ignorant to get a job. If your lazy ass wont get tf out of the house and get a job, you don't deserve to thrive. you don't deserve your iPhone, salon visits, nice houses, and free money. Personally, I think you don't deserve shit. This is kind of caused by the bad school system, but you can be a drop out and still at least work in fast food. Sorry this is coming from a 15 year old's point of view.

Also the one thing I can SERIOUSLY agree with you on is the school system. It's fucking bullshit. Waking me up at 5 every day to be around a bunch of idiots and dumbass teachers who think they know everything doesn't do the job. I don't learn shit and I still get stressed the fuck out about it all.

Obesity is a disease and food addiction can be just as harmful and real as addiction to drugs. You blame people's obesity on laziness when it's really not the cause. Losing weight isn't a physical challenge, it's also mental.

You take things for granted. You think getting a job is easy. Try to telling that to the 11,000,000 unemployed people living in our country. You're telling me that there are that many people who are just too lazy to find a job? No, that's preposterous.

You simply don't know what you're talking about.

Hey, im not necessarily happy with whats going on with out country either.. the rich are rich for a reason, the government taxes the shit out of them over everything man. They take rich people and make their hard work go to waste by taking them out. I feel bad for the people fighting for our country right now. The president has stuck his nose where it shouldn't have been stuck in.
Also, obesity is definitely by the government. Why the fuck do they tax and charge much more for natural foods than for foods that are using machines to make them?bullshit

I kind of over exaggerated it a bit. But no, obesity is NOT a disease. Sometimes people do it due to depression, and food disorders, but most don't. Most people are just fat because they don't do anything. And about the jobs thing, you're right but does that mean all 11 million of them are even TRYING to get a job? Why would they need a job when they can get everything they need to live for free? I guarantee at least half of them aren't even trying. I'm sorry if I offended you for being real, but as I said this is coming from a 15 year old.

The American Medical Association would disagree with you.

Show me some proof for your claims. Provide some evidence that half of the unemployed haven't ever tried to get a job.

Being proud to be a American has nothing to do with the government, and all to do with the country.
Be proud of your country not your government, people are so fucking dumb when it comes to this cause a lot of people don't know shit when it comes to our government. They go off the bullshit they hear from all the anti government fags that don't have a clue what there saying.

Op: Saying you're not proud to be a American is just as, bad as being a terrorist. Be proud to be a American and not a little prick that hates it based on a bullshit opinion that comes from biased facts from a internet source.

Just be proud if who you are. You don't necessarily have to be proud of being an American but just think of how that thought has made you change how you are altogether.

I'm glad nobody claimed that the Illuminati runs the US. If someone said that, I'd probably go ahead and put my phone in a wood chipper.

I am proud to be an American though I may not totally agree with the path our country is going towards but I could care less. Yes, the US is fairly superior to most other countries and yes we have our flaws but every country has it's own issues.

Answer this. Where would you rather live? Tbh The United States is the most ideal place to be because it's the land of the free. That might not mean much but The US is by-far the best place to be.

Most other countries have worse problems then us. Just because you don't like our current president or legal system doesn't mean we are corrupt. Everyone always hates on every president because they are either democrat or republican. WHO GIVES A FLYING FUCK. Our country isn't perfect and WILL NEVER BE. Just like every other country.

Yes, we are labeled horribly by other countries but who gives a fuck. I get to write what I want and say what I want. I get to profess what I believe in, I have the right to carry my own weapon, I am protected against unlawful searches, I have the right to due-process, I have the right to be defended fairly in court and be provided an attorney at no cost, I the right to vote for my countries leader, the list goes on.

But most importantly, I have the right to be who I am and I have the right to be FREE.

What more could one ask for?

As much as I am for supporting people who are going through a hard time, there are way too many people in the United States who are blatantly lazy and unwilling to do anything for themselves. There are so many scholarships available with the only prerequisite being a low income. That's an inefficient way of filling universities. If an individual is actually intelligent and driven and can't afford school, absolutely fund it, but there are way too many people at my university with complete grants who have no business whatsoever being in college. Meanwhile, I'll be graduating shortly with high honors and I've struggled to pay my way through college for as long as I've been enrolled, without a single dime of help.

Programs designed to help people should work and they absolutely need to be in place, but there are so many people who abuse the system and ruin it for everyone else. I'd rather see more money invested into the wellbeing of children. There are so many problems with the programs that impact the children in this country.

Ok FK its Curley again i want your guys honest opinions on what i am about to say anyone who knows me well knows i have very strong hatred of how our country has been being run for years.


i havent been proud to be an American in a long ass time, i consider it a disgrace to be called one to be honest, it comes with the label of a society where ignorance is praised and knowledge is looked down at, the culture is pathetic everything from trends to the "popular music" , the government stands for corporations and themselves. I'm so ready to move out of this place, i refuse to stay in a country where i feel i can not move up or better myself or when i chose to settle down and have a family i'm struggling to provide for my kids while billionaires get away with anything here. Money does truly talk in this bought out country.

Thoughts?

Money talks all over the world dude that's not just america. Wanna have a say in this world then what you say needs to be worth listening to. There's billions of people to say that every individual should get a say and be heard out is dumb.

Honestly if someone in another country read what you just wrote I think they'd be disgusted as problems in America are so petty compared to what they are elsewhere.

Typically, when I'm referred to as an "American," it's the foreign kids on XBOX making fun of me with their hamburger and obesity remarks.

Society-wise, our country is an utter disgrace. The levels of hypocrisy, arrogance, and disrespect for its own citizens is disgusting.

I could not agree more with you.
Our American government has withdrawn from our needs. They decided to feed the fuel of our lower-class citizens and like to give them all the high end benefits that they do not deserve.
All of the rich billionaires don't even get taxed nearly as much as the middle or lower classes receive.
I mean, we are getting so bad here in America that we are just completely getting rid of the middle-class, and it will just soon be lower-class and upper-class.
I don't even want to live here. But in all honesty, the grass is not greener on the other side. Everywhere in the world is just a mess.
Money runs society, and money is based on faith. Money is one of the most useless things on our planet. It ruins everything.

Probably because there's not even 5,000,000 people here and we need a large country's stability.

I do know what i am saying, i research both sides more than you could possibly imagine, i don't go on one swayed views, i am proud of myself i am not proud of who backs my country, and my way of life and yours if you are American is believe it or not made worse if you arent the 1% in this country. I took 3 years of government (related classes) in high school and 2 years of Debate trust me i know what i talk about.

The point is Doug, thats not what OUR country is founded on our constitution is one of the few who are NOT supposed to run on money thats why i hate it and i speak out against it, i dont expect any immediate progress to be made overnight but the more you speak out the more people hear and wake up and realize whats going on (hopefully) some sort of action will, run through peoples minds and say "Hey, im tired of this bull, we need to unite and stand up and do something."
