Will the world recover from the US regime?

I can heartily accept the evils of the past man. Corruption, emprisonment, wars, racism, slavery, rape, no rights, no food- evil. But that was the evil of truth. Hitler said: fuck the Jews. Lenin said: fuck the Capitalists. Caesar and Napolean said: fuck the world. They did these things in order to reach a purpose, by whatever means necessary, and people accepted their side effects.

But these men were up against the world, they did not act as its constable. They did not claim freedom, truth, and human rights. When did democracy become a dirty word? Will rights and freedom continue to be destroyed in their own name?

Is there absolutely any chance of a man having hope of a better future? The United States of America was supposed to be this hope, and it fell through almost immediately as it reached capacity. Is this just the cycle of things? How much worse off are we going to become as Capitalism and technology advances?

I love it when people try to justify imposing their wacko views by saying "Well, what do those stupid masses know anyway!"

Those "basic problems" could be solved if we strengthened the economy to produce more oppurtunities to everyone and people more economic freedom by destroying protectionism and making sure governments respect property rights (especially in Africa where kleptocratic governments don't and mire business in endless regulations, the cost of which to its citizens is clearly visible) instead of sinking cash into an endless hole. That's what's been happening for past few decades and surprise, suprise, there's still poverty in Africa and places around the world. In fact, unless there's a case of an emergency, when you give aid to a country you're actually hurting the farmers and business there. After all, why buy grain when it'll just fall from the sky? The market price of grain plummets and farmers are struggling just to pay their expenses, let alone make a profit. Canada, The United States and The European Union sure as hell shouldn't be paying farm subsidies. Give those farmers from South America and Africa a chance in the market. Globalization is the answer.

Oh yes, "closing your eyes." The same tired cliche I hear from just about every loon I come across. Quite a few of them have this pathlogical obsession with potraying the United States in worst light possible, facts be damned. I also loved how they swallowed "reports" from whatever source supported their view without question. They also seemed reluctant to face the realities of the situation as it is now by focusing on past mistakes to support their wishful thinking.

Don't you know? It's an "illegal" occupation even though foreign troops in Iraq have a mandate from the UN to be there because "Bush lied."
