well, we also take and use oil from them, and now, there are a lot of westerners that go to their country, they work and live there and talking smack about the place...so we are all in the same boat...hahahahahah...
arnie, i know what you meant, a car is a car doesnt matter what type or make it is, it gets you from point A to point Z...only girls that have highways in their vagina and traffic lights on their boobs care about that as much...
there IS huge restructuring that has to be done with their laws, fix it or not, thats their call on that...
as for the west and all of the things about and of it, heres my take on that...the west isnt really making much of an example of itself now does it? as a world's citizen its not really proactivly contributing in the peace and order department...education? i know more dumb people per square inch from the more developed west than the 3rd world countries in the world, and even if they were educated, they dont act like they were...same thing...at least in 3rd world countries, they have an excuse to act or be dumb...in the west where education is free, people take it for granted. thats the great equalizer for all of us. we all have flaws in our systems. a country with predominantly smart people will always be ruled by a corrupt leader...a country with not so smart people would always be lead by a power hungry lunatic who wants to take over the world, a country thats so rich would always have lazy people with little disregard for outsiders and their culture...what did i miss???
point is, we all have flaws...pitty we can only talk about it and not really address them...if we can change in a little way for the better, this would be a better world...BUT...we dont...we like ourselves too much. be it arab, american, europeans, nicaraguan, filipino or what have you...
