What do you most like or dislike about your country?

For like I would say the NHS (what wont be around for much longer) and for dislike I am going to say the Beatles.

This entire thread is now invalid and you should be ashamed.

Try to live by penny lane in Liverpool and go in to every over stupid shop and café with the same stupid songs ring out and go to same fucking school where John Lennon went to, then you would now why i hate them so.
Not that I dislike any one who likes them.

dislike: nationalists

I don't get you.Hating the beatles is like saying "I hate pizza" or something.
And why dont you go elsewhere other than Penny lane? There won't be so much beatles related around.

And as of my country.I love the culture,cuisine,the history,and it's people.
But I can't stand it's media,faschist nationalists,and the greedy/idiotic politicans we have.

I live just of penny lane so there is now getting away from that one. You now in the song he makes it out to be a happy place well its not its shit and it smells and people don't wave and say hello they spit.

Strangely the NHS is one of the things I like the most about the UK. The thing I dislike most is how little attention the future gets in this country. It's either about reversing the status quo or fixing current problems.

racists

what i like about norway is every thing

the landskape, clean energy, low crime, good education and health care,
the open minded people, the large amount of metal heads, social democracy,
and that only about 20% of people say that religion occupies an important place in their life.

the thing i dont like is nationalists and racists.

The best thing about America is the degree of individual, political, and economic liberty that all citizens share.

I'm not entirely sure what the worst thing is, but I lean towards the popular culture.

I like that, and I guess I like cheesesteaks too. And Scrapple. And most American Food.

What I dislike the most... hipsters.

Country=United States of America

Like
-GOP
-Patriotism
-A certain TX Governor
-Restaurants

Dislike
-Micheal Moore
-Modern Feminism
-West Burrow Baptist Church

What I like? The overall tolerance of a lot of things, Hertog Jan and the fact we basically colonised the fucking sea. So yeah.
What I dislike? Almost all musicians that come from here, the fact that each year millions go towards the Royal Family, Bavaria and ehrm...well, there's probably lots of things, but I can't come up with anything else for now.

That there are so many fat fucks in america, and that Kark is an American.

I live in the USA...

What I Like:
-entertainment
-luxuries
-concept
-"be anything you want to be" (for ex: If i wanted i could become a TV talk-show host and make decent cash. Or i could become a biologist. Or i could farm. Or i could be a sports player. etc. opportunities really.)

What I Don't Like:
-idiots
-poor educational system
-racism/inequality
-rich people having too much influence/power. (I swear, if I got caught for heroine possession (which i don't btw) i'd be in jail for life, if a CEO or celebrity did it they'd be in there for only a couple years...this is exaggerated of course.)



just to name a few of both.

dislike: Two party system.

For like: The surfer/crocodile dundee stereotypes that some foreigners seem to think we all are. for dislike - That it is a racist, incest-filled shithole.

I heard even the kangaroos are having raging incest orgies.

Like: Freedom of speech, an extreme variety of good food, tons of games with good prices and we don't censor them, plenty of beautiful sites to visit.

Dislike: Capitalistic, the Republican party are a bunch of fucknuts, people here think America can do no wrong, rednecks, our aggressive ways internationally, the two party system we have.

If you want to be anything you want to be, you'd be better off moving to Denmark.

It's a very developed country (this has a thousand likes within it, eg. good healthcare, decent education, access to luxuries etc). Generally a very high standard of living, second highest in the world. A lot of us are reasonably sensible and intelligent. The nature of the people here is pretty good. The girls/women are hot. We have really great beaches everywhere. The climate (though it can get too hot). Our government is far from perfect, but not totally incompetent. Extremely varied and unique geography, possibly the most on Earth. Much less craziness than the US. Good economic climate - unemployment is at 5% (never went above 5.8% even during the recession), inflation 2.6%, record high terms of trade, debt is very manageable at 25% of GDP as opposed to 106% in the US. Extremely multicultural. People here are really into sport, and most of them are really fun. As a country, we have no real responsibility or obligations. Our primary method of transport is kangaroos.

We ban games. Those that aren't we pay twice as much as Americans for no reason. We ban virtually all weapons in virtually all circumstances. While there is less inequality than the great majority of countries, there still is quite a lot. Geographically, there are a few big cities on the coasts, separated by an enormous expanse of desert. Transport is pretty bad overall - public transport system is total rubbish, chronic road traffic jams everywhere, no good rail links between major cities. Bogans (in American terms, a combination of white/trailer park trash and rednecks). Nothing ever happens here. No interesting history. House prices are astronomical. Not as racist as many countries, but still plenty can be found here. Constant target for refugees, asylum seekers, illegal immigrants etc. Multiculturalism has its upsides and downsides. Local entertainment (TV, film etc.) is rubbish. Crocodile wrestling is a compulsory sport from the age of three which is fine, but their eyes are a little creepy. Being upside down on the bottom of the world all the time is a little tiring, all the blood runs to your head.

Oh man, you have no idea. Everywhere you look. Often with koalas. But it's not just the animals. You know, we don't call everyone "mate" for nothing.

Sorry, I just has to quote this word because I love it, it made me laugh when I saw it.

It would take little effort for a CEO or celebrity to get off with out a jail term. Probably a fine and community service at the very worst, and they manage to get off completely free all the time.
