Name 5 things you dislike about your country.

Started by Atlantis00111 pages

1. Government is too corrupt, most than many countries, and it is a fact. Money simply vanishes. Some say that if corruption decreased 50%, or possibly 10%, income would be 10 times greater.
2. People dumbness. Here incredible stupid people can be president, and people are sufficiently ignorant to vote them. You will see that this is a very important issue if you just knew our president.
3. People dumbness again. People lack of intelligent culture of any kind. Many brazilians praise too much their own cultural values, and they are a little xenophobic, but many of their cultural values are empty or are derived from other countries. If you want to see a good movie or TV program at all, then you shouldn´t watch brazilian programs. They are horrible, specially the movies which concur to the Oscar. The few one or two good movies are not valorized here.
4. Law is too soft here, you can kill anyone, and go out without nothing happening with you here. There is some guys that burned a indian, and nothing happened with them. People worship criminals here.
5. Country makes a lot harder to import foreign cheaper, and better products, which would make our lifes a lot easier, because our own products are too expensive, and if foreign products enter, everyone would buy the better and cheaper products. And the people even agree with don´t allowing foreign products to enter.

England (born)

1. That we loose too often on penaltys in world cups
2. Most can´t handle alcohol and cause chaos when drunk
3. That our empire has gone and were left with a small rainy island instead of some caribean paradise.
4. The Monarchy is a thing of the past and should be abolished, the french had the right idea.
5. Insanely incorrect brutal newspapers which make things up, which pick someone and hound them into the ground for some reason (like david beckham after he got a red card in the world cup)

Wow, SpellJammer never realized how much it sucks to be the rest of the world and how you all have leaders like our democratic nominees and they're always just a strand away from taking power..

MOMMY, SPELLJAMMER'S SCARED! 😛

Belgium
1. Racism and Separatism:
People in Flanders (northern half of Belgium) are becoming more and more racist. In the past I always hoped that that would start to decline as younger people took over from the elderly but lately I am starting to doubt it. the damn Extreme-right racist party is the second biggest in Flanders FFS (thank goodness they don't matter a lot on the national scale)
Separatism is also growing in Flanders, damn people and politicians are always blaming the wallons far almost everything bad that happens here. Somehow they always find a way to blame it on those guys, which is sad and childish. Politicians should be above this + this petty squabbling is ruining my country!

2. Too many liberals in the government:
Damn those right-wing bastards, we do not need a tax reduction when the country is doing only so-so. And certainly not a percentile tax reduction. What the heck are poor people (who don't pay taxes because they are too poor) do with a tax reduction, Well I'll tell you SQUAT, NOTHING! and what do struggling one income families who don't pay that many taxes with a percentile tax reduction NOT NEARLY as much as wealthy people who pay far more taxes and ergo get a far bigger benefit from it.

3. Not Taxing Wealth:
We still haven't introduced that. People who have the money to buy paintings which cost more than what a normal person makes in a year should bloody well pay taxes for it. People who have 1.5 million euro's+ on their bank account should pay taxes on it.

4. Unemployment:
We should do more to counter it!!!

5. Not Allowing migrants to vote:
Damn some people have lived here for 30 years, speak the language and everything and only because a damn piece of paper says they are Turkish or god knows what they aren't allowed to influence policy. Such a load of BS.
It took years just to allow them to vote in the local elections, but that's NOT enough. Those people contribute to our community, pay taxes and respect our laws we should allow them to vote on regional and national elections.

You forgot the "some bastards talk French" part.

don't mind that

SpellJammer should be running the country of Belgium!

SpellJammer: Rebbecca, you are charged with Bran-Bran not dating SpellJammer because you are her friend and dislike him and chicks don't date guys thier friends don't approve of!
Rebbecca: Dude, you're fricking king now. Like you couldn't--
SpellJammer: RELEASE THE ROBOTIC LIONS!
Fire: Umm.. sir.. we don't have robotic lions.. Constructing an avid robot like that would require alot of time and money. And you declared socialism when you first got here..
SpellJammer: WHAT?! WHAT DOES SPELLJAMMER PAY TAXES FOR THEN?!
Fire: sir.. you DON'T pay taxes.. you distrubate the money to homes, charities, healthcare, social security. The people are very happy by the way. But there isn't enough to fund your insane project..
SpellJammer: Go feed yourself to the robotic lions you treasonist..

1. everything is way too expensive...
2. politicians are greedy bastards...

3) Our Summers and Winters are pretty lousy.
4) Blue Peter.
5) TV licenses.

The five things I dislike about the UK...

1 That "regional" is often used as a substitute for "comedy"... eg, Bread, Birds of a Feather, etc

2 That we only ever seem to get American films, aimed at safely making money, instead of trying something a bit different...

3 That we have people who think nothing of making racist slurs and daubing graffiti on the premises of hardworking business people, then expect those same people to sell them goods and services....

4 That we idolise celebrities to the extent that the courts and police are lenient with them when they break the law, when, as role models, we should punish them most severely....

5 That the weather is just too hot now... we never get decent winters, and we go up to 40 degrees C in summer.... 20 is plenty....

I live in the myth known as The United States of America. We are supposed to be a constitutional republic. In truth, we are an economic oligarchy. What this means is, that large corporations, not government, is what's really in control. Everyone loves to scream about the evil Republicans but when it comes to economic policies the Democrats are no different. Both parties support free trade which while it (in the short term) helps stock value of major corporations has led to a massive trade deficiet and believe me, it didn't start with Shrub. We had laissez faire capitalism in the 19th centeruy in this country and there were only 2 classes of people, the very rich and the very poor. It wasn't until the 1930s when unions started gaining strength that the middle class was finally created. Now, the trend is going back the other way and the middle class is shrinking and may well be gone alltogether within 20 years. Personally, I have little hope that this can be stopped.

Yeah, I don't see much of a differance when Bush was here then Clinton. Same bullcrap. Exsept now instead of being paranoid over if we're being affirmative enough in our actions, we're scared of guys with towels on thier heads who could be hiding a razor underneath it..

I notice that alot of countries are actually not that differant from here. I'm wondering if America influenced the world, or was the world always like this?

more than 50 Percent of Comunist scum.......damn elections........I am all for monarchy again....

OK...I thought of another one....Mosquito's...Hate Mosquito's.
