US's involvement in the Korean war did nothing to solve that problem, as we're still dealing with it.

You have no right to make this statement.  How do you know what the situation in Korea would be today, if the U.S. had never gone there?  It could be 10 times worse.

I didn't say US's involvement made things worse, nor did i ponder about "what if's". I simply said it didn't solve anything.

And i've got every right to make any statement i want to, it's called freedom of speech... :) Even more, because it's a fact; the problem isn't solved.

P&L, brother, we're exchanging thoughts and ideas as friends here, let's not get carried away with animosity just because we disagree.   :pub: :-*

Okay, that does it!  >:( I'm going to check with my contacts in congress to see what can be done about the Norwegian problem.  Perhaps an invasion!  :excited:

You could check out Michael Moores "Where To Invade Next". Whether you like him or not (and i'm guessing not?) you could learn something from that particular one. About Norway and Finland, amongst others...

No one should ever check out anything from Michael Moore...that guy is without a doubt the biggest asshat that has ever made fake documentaries....it's sad that there are actually people out there who believe the stuff he is spewing out of his fat ass....I seriously hope you aren't one of them Billy...seriously.

Not usually, but that one is one of the better ones. I know he was right about the Norwegian prison system. Isn't it true that Finland has got one of the best educational system in the world?
He was also right in that drug addiction in Portugal have gone down since using was decriminalized 12 years ago, and i'm inclined to believe that France've got one of the best school lunch arrangements...
Take it with a grain of salt, yes, but it can't be 100% fake. Those who shout out the loudest about "fake news" are the ones making them, and not all so-called "leftists" are liars. :)

Well ofcourse he uses facts that suit his agenda. But he quite often manages to twist them too to further his agenda.

A very despicable man all in all...

Moore does use stats to support his agenda, while at the same time ignoring stats that go against it.  He's no dummy, so he is very good at it.  I don't think I would go as far as calling him despicable, though, as I think sometimes his intentions are good.  I prefer to save that term for real lowlifes.

But seriously, folks, Moore did call Trump's election on account that Clinton truly did not present a compelling enough argument to vote *for* her. It's pretty obvious that she rigged things in the Democratic primaries to block out Sanders. Although Sanders formed ranks with Clinton at the convention, his supporters were not necessarily sold - and Comey's comments just before the election totally derailed the Clinton campaign.

If you'd seen the film you'd understand his intention better. It's basically "how to improve USAian conditions by taking notice how other countries do things", not an agenda he's trying to push through like in his other films. No facts or stats to trick with.

No wonder things are going to hell when those supposedly on the same side can't even cooperate...

At that time I was torn between Sanders and Trump.  But then when I saw what the DNC did to Sanders, it was an easy decision for me.  And I do remember Sanders complaining about a "rigged" system during the primary, but the press never criticized him for saying that.  Then when Trump mentioned "rigged" in the general election, the press jumped all over him.  That was 1 of the reasons I was so glad he won, to stick it right up the ass of those hypocrite scum in the press.

Exactly. Going in, Clinton thought it was her election to lose, but failed to do due diligence in terms of getting the Democrat base activated and motivated. There were also concerns about potential voter intimidation in certain states that went unaddressed... and then Clinton went on to lose those states by razor margins. Had Clinton campaigned in those states and gotten her ground forces active for getting her voters to vote, she could have had a different result, even with the Comey bombshell. The GOP strategy was like it was in 2000 and 2004, to have a knife-fight in just enough states to win the Electoral College, don't waste time with the rest. Clinton didn't show up for the knife fight and the GOP picked up just enough states...
