It's unfortunate the sift is overflowing with America haters... Last year, private American citizens gave 309 billion dollars to charities, so this bullcrap about Americans being selfish and "destroying the planet" is just that.

Now that's interesting. When we reach that state will we then have, as chilaxe put it, our natural socialist utopia?

As long as your avatar does the whipping, otherwise no thanks.
