England vs America---America vs England
Living in America, i must say that nearly everyone i met believed
'America is number 1'
'America is the best'
'We can kick anyone's ass'
It seemed this kind of elitist nationalism had been drilled into their minds from an early age. There was a big difference between taking pride in their county and believing they were actually better then other people. That's from my personal experiance living there and in no way does it apply to everyone.
No one country is better then another. We are all human beings ultimately, we must learn to live on this earth together.
England vs America---America vs England
I got pirde for my country, that doesn"t make it number one. I'm sorry but I hate when someone thinks they know everything about something because they "were there". England has nothing to offer, I hate to put it that way, but seriously. I can't think of one reason to go to London or any other part. For what, Big Ben, most things and places on my list of "to do" don't involve England. Everything thats good is everywhere else. All i ever hear from people who cross the Atlantic is, "the weather sucked and we had nothing to do". Now Rome, France, Germany, or Italy. These are all places to see. I'd say their isn't a point in going to the US, but well our visitor rate would probly prove I'm ling. I'm really not trying to be a dick, so don't get upset over what I say. . .

And the fact that everyone else in the world talks like their above Americans is not a problem? I think the US has earned those bragging rights. I don't know if you read my first few post on this thread, but it's a lack of facts that keeps the world on America's back. Britian has alot of dirt under their nails that they try to ignore, and i think thats a load of crap. . .

Thank fuck that's opinion and not fact. Heathrow is one of the busiest airports in the world, which proves you wrong.
And, haha, i work in a holiday business, and we've got plenty of Americans who come back year after year.
AND, thanks to global warming, we have much better weather than we ever used to. Infact, while America was covered in snow, freezing cold, England was having it's best weather, no cloud, hot and sunny. Lasted for about a month before we got a couple of days of rain, and then back to great weather.
Your right, there isnt loads of stuff to do, but damn, theres a fair bit. Infact, theres more than a fair bit. I'm sure you dont have a clue about half the stuff we have, just the same as i dont know what America has to offer [nor do i care untill those rediculously harsh laws are gone]
England vs America---America vs England
LOL, one more. . .
I'm all for equality, but it's not going to happen as long as American's are "the badguys" or w/e ever you want to call them. My idea on life is to study our history and develope our lives by correcting past misstakes. My country has done alot of stupid ass shit in its time, but like we said early. The US has hardly been around in comparison to England, and England has alot of history lacked away in a closet somewhere. Does Slavery ring a bell, Brits made that part of the economy. Not to mention engalnd trying to tell us not to invade, how soon they forget India, Africa, china, Veitnam, ect. these are all places england went first. . .. . .lol, I blame engalnd, we were only trying to keep up. except England got mad when we passed them. . .
