Where are all these Anti-Americans you think are on ARF? I think I have an idea who you think is anti-American on ARF.

I don't think you'll get many anti Americans here? Might not be the best source for commies. I know there are a few here, but it seems to be very few.
ETA: Dangit! 19 seconds. |

I am very pro american as our laws are set up for the government not to fuck us.
but there are some really big things we need to change in this country regarding healthcare. |
|
I like the America where we still had a Constitution.
And laws. And elections. And less corruption. When across the country the governments not only closed down churches and temples, the "Free Exercise Clause" be damned, I was livid. |

Pro-American but I hate our politicians (uniparty), bureaucrats and what has been allowed to happen. Our founding fathers would have risen decades ago.

Anti-Americans, which country should we emulate? Where would you go? View Quote Their heaven was the USSR. It's gone. They mad. Their goal is to fundamentally transform the US of A into a socialist shithole, and they have not the slightest desire to leave. |

Maybe Europe in some ways when it comes to prescription drugs and oversight of how they doled out. I've read some bad medication stories from Europe though, and I don't know too much about how things are done there, but a Ukrainian woman I know was surprised by some of the things I told her about my experience with that system here. She has lived in Greece for since the war began and spent a lot of her time there before that. I'm not sure how much she really knows about things with regards to how things are in that realm over there either.
Guns, of course, by and large, no, but from what I have learned European countries are like the states here and the laws on firearms vary from each country to each country. |

You can’t go anywhere that is substantially different or will remain substantially different for any period of time.
America along with the balance of the world is in the same pattern all civilizations have gone through in the past. It’s just a matter of time until there is a “reset” and we start the cycle over again. The best place to go, would be an isolated area with the US that is relatively insulated from all the other things that are causing people to go mad. |

I’ll tell you what we need to change regarding healthcare. We need to strip the power from unions masquerading as medical associations. There’s absolutely no reason why it should be so hard to become a doctor in this country. It shouldn’t cost $1 million, and you shouldn’t have to go through a residency that is specifically designed to prohibit nontraditional students from entering the medical profession. The nursing associations have done the same thing. Their goal is to create a perpetual shortage of doctors and nurses in order to protect the incomes of the union members. They claim that this is to the highest quality candidates, but in fact it simply protects the class structure that’s in place. But whenever you talk to people about healthcare reform, it’s always about the government paying for healthcare, and not actually making healthcare better, or more affordable.

Nobody's anti-American. We're just perceiving problems with our country that we want to fix. I'm not sure where this conflation is coming from. It's like if you lived in some shithole crack shack and your wife said "Hey, why don't we fix this place up?", and you respond by asking her why she's anti-home ownership.

Quoted: The past. View Quote This will sound weird, but we go to the Bahamas all the time. I've worked there, and spent months there at a time. The thing I like about it most, is that out on the out islands, it feels like the America I grew up in (born in 1958). People don't lock their doors, if you forget your wallet at the grocery store, they tell you to take the groceries and pay next time you come by. People stop and give you a ride when you are walking and you don't worry about being murdered. Everybody is friendly and talks to you. People do favors for each other. Now, places like Nassau? They used to be like that, too. Now, they are like every Democrat run city in the USA, with a lot of crime, although most of the rest still applies. I dropped my wallet about ten years ago in Nassau leaving a hardware store. I realized it an hour later, ran back to the hardware store, and they had it. Some guy had seen it in the street and figured someone going to the hardware store had probably dropped it and left it with them. |

I guess i would go to 1792 America. I love the country and what it was and use to stand for…. The America of today…. Not very impressed.
|

None. This is a great country and is still very amazing!
Since retiring, I’ve traveled it. A lot. I hope parts of it never change. Progressive politics IS bad. |

This country's great, it's the unnecessary gov't, led by the rich, and the dumbmericans that are the problem!

View Quote What everybody needs to truly understand is that the USA is no longer a "free" country. It's just not as repressive as the others, yet.... If you think I'm full of shit, have you been watching the fight in Congress regarding the reauthorization of FISA 702? First, our Representative's will not force the government to stop violating our 4th Amendment rights by requiring them to get a warrant. Second, the governments spying powers are being expanded to where plumbers, electricians, and any else that enters your home may be compelled to assist the government in spying upon you! It's truly frightening shit.... yet we will all gather round the BBQ on the 4th of July and yell "Freedom" and "Were #1"; when it's all just lies and propaganda. Freedom died on 9/11.... and no one gives a shit, as long as we still have the illusion. Accountant |

Quoted: Just curious. View Quote I suspect people how want to tear down what is good about america are not interested in making the U.S. like another nation or union, they want to take control of it because they think they don't already have it. Plus they don't want those who are for what is good about america to have any refuge from them or any power. Its less about what they can get. It's more about what they don't want you to have. |

Speed limits - Germany
Taxes - Switzerland Gun quality control - Literally any European country |

Big state. Bureaucracy.
"show me the man, and I will find you the crime" We are living it. |
