it's definitely more than that.

in as small doses as "democracy, morality, equality, justice, honesty, love, and everything else" are here in this country, there are parts of the world where they're non-existent. every year thousands of immigrants literally die trying to come into this country to make a better life for themselves and their families.

So as

ah but if you only trully knew what a "mentally and spiritually hindering environment" was, you'd understand how completely errenous this statement is with regards to the American government. You're getting a little too carried away with your disgust and disenchantment about this country to realize how ridiculous your statements sound. Try telling that to someone from Lybia or any other third world country and see the reaction you get.

but people here -citizens,residents, immigrants (illegal and otherwise) are still 100% more free than in some of the places you mentioned wanting to move to.

geez. before you start packing up and throwing all this American sh*t out the window, find out about the world you want to run to. and don't just sit content with what you've seen on tv because that seems to be the only thing that your basing all this resentment on.
