I have no love for British colonial policies, or many other things about the culture, but I cannot stand quiet and let you say this in this forum.<br /><br />I am putting my foot down on your trolling. My blog is a place where I try to create a community. I do not want to invite comments quite this rude to that community. You are welcome to make any comment you wish. If I feel like any future comment is, or has the potential to be too offensive to people, I will delete it without further ado.Barefoot Doctoralhttp://barefootdoctoral.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855199626103323785.post-5562977956450918912012-08-30T20:12:33.846-07:002012-08-30T20:12:33.846-07:00LOL!

In a country that has collapsed from superpower to poodle in under 50 years, snootiness is all they have left :) <br /><br />I have felt there is a fundamental difference between Americans and British. It always amazes me how the US talks about being overtaken by kids from China and even India, when the US is easily millions of miles ahead. Its because Americans believe that they owe their success to good choices they have made as a nation: liberty and entrepreneurship. It follows naturally from this belief system that if any other nation...China..India..anyone.. were to make those same choices, they would be just as successful!<br /><br />The British see their former superpower status purely as a function of racial supremacy. That way they can believe that British have just formed some kind of larger white union with America. It helps them deny their poodle status.<br /><br />Mocklionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08989543242460171712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855199626103323785.post-24449455314652000102012-08-28T19:17:24.933-07:002012-08-28T19:17:24.933-07:00I think this is pretty incredible, I love that ANY...I think this is pretty incredible, I love that ANYONE can learn; I think it's a shame that in some cultures "learning isn't cool" but I firmly believe that anyone of any class, given the fundamentals can excel.
