Why don't you take a look at the Fortune 100 index, then work out which
country has a higher percentage in that list, based on population.
You'll see that the Brits are indeed beating your pants off.

Err right! The USA will soon have one person in every 200 in prison.
Most of your blue collar jobs will have gone to Mexico, a lot of your
white collar work(esp programmers) will go to India. Most of the
Amerikan GDP is consumer shit that has a very limited usefulness.

Let's play "spot the Stalinist".
This is a surefire way to tell, since the only items of any value to a
Stalinist are tanks, guns, planes and the heavy machinery used to create
them.
Wanting a better life (heat, light, decent clothing, wholesome food,
entertainment)
is called "consumerism", since the Stalinist can neither provide guns
and butter, nor
admit that failing.

Sounds like someone who doesn't know what they are talking about.
I'll address your first point last. At 56k murders a year, it would
take 5000+ years to kill off today's population, without replacement.
I know those are big numbers for you. Perhaps your grade 13 teacher
could explain them to you. The US has lost many blue collar jobs,
but still has a larger manufacturing sector than any other country.
As far as what is produced in the US, if you consider cars, airplanes,
computers, steel, food products, etc as 'consumer shit' than you are
an idiot. Well, you are an idiot anyways. Why don't you tell us what
GB produces that is so critical to the world economy? Jaguars? You
see one of those every few months. Not really very good cars for the
price. That fact is supported pretty well by sales numbers. How about
those brit computers? Or those brit foods? Yeah, whatever. You had
your 15 minutes. You don't have to be so jealous just because the US
produces more manufatured goods AND food than any other country.

Of course, even by that measure, the US is tops in the world. If
you were building an army, where would you buy your equipment from?
Well, if you wanted quality stuff, there's only one place to buy from.

Don't bring up entertainment. You are sure to get a zillion letters
from euro jerks telling you how much better brit and french
entertainment products are (films!). Hollywood is shaking it its
boots over Jerry Louis and Fawlty Towers. I saw a french rap video
the other day on the local public access station. What a laugh.
Nothing funnier than a skinny french guy dressed up in leather and a
beret(!) and sunglasses trying to look and sing tough. It looked like

Rap isn't by itself embarassing, but some dorky french guy trying
to look like a gangsta (beret!) was worth a laugh. The french ought
to stick to things they are good at, like eating duck and making wine,
oh and being punching bags for the Germans.
Lets play spot the brain-washed yank. Yanks consider 'a better life'
being able to buy wierd, useless consumer junk on the cable shopping
network, while outside the police beat a black teenager to death.
The average yank has a life similar to a factory farmed chicken. They
live in thier units, watching TV, eating burgers, chanting "I am free, I
am free" and occasionally placing a cross on piece of paper.
You yanks are remarkably simple-minded, but that's how your government
wants you.

Hey, that's your opinion. Many many people disagree with you. Many
people who actually buy cds and tapes disagree with you. Are you
brits still mad that Oasis is the best that you can do? There's lots
of new creative rock and roll coming out of GB, as long as it sounds
like the Beatles, and the band dresses and act like the Beatles.
Popular music in the US has to some extent been driven by what the
'black' musicians are doing. Delta Blues, Motown, Hip Hop/Dance/Rap,
whatever. YOu see it first in the 'black' music community, then it
is slightly watered down and picked up by mainstream musicians. Don't
be such an ignorant euro-weenie.

Excuse me?
What do you mean the concept is new to Europeans?

England Scotland and Wales as much as I like and when I like without
any papers or cards.
As far as I am aware, I always have been.

Yeah - but lots of people buy Barry Manilow records, and that doesn't
mean he's any good. It just means the marketing is good. You see, the
young, impressionable, record buying, MTV watching kids buy whatever
MTV tells them. Good or bad. And right now, loads of good old songs are
being dredged up, brushed of and destroyed by dumbshit rap groups liek
"Warren G" and their ilk.

Hardly. The majority of stuff coming out of the usa is soft funk and
soul orientated rap. Mainstream pap being marketed as "cool" by fifty
year old music biz millionaires with pony tails.
For real progressive music, you need to pay attention to the European
club and indie scenes.

Well, there you have it. The Eurotrash are angry because America

Ummm...no. Oasis was the best American audiences could find. In Britain,
you have not watered-down Beatles, but some pretty good IDM a la Orbital
or The Prodigy.
The underground scene blows everything else out of the water, of course.

Delta blues, good; motown, ok; the rest, stick it where the sun don't
shine. Just because it's black doesn't make it good. The same
ethnicity that gave the world Jimi Hendrix also gave it Dennis Rodman.

Such as?
I shouldn't think you get to hear most of the decent bands from the UK.
Problem; for so long the UK chart has been filled with yank music;
any decent brit bands don't get the airplay.
The Brit general public don't get to hear the decent Britbands either.
So they don't buy it and the decent bands don't go to the US.
Thankfully over the last year or so, this trend is changing with less
yank music and more Indie Brit stuff.
So you got Oasis. Some of us couldn't wait to get rid of them.
If you don't like it, don't listen to it.
Maria
Well there you go - we're "supposed" to like it. I think that just about
says it all. The approach is obviously working.
You fuckers are just sooooooo dumb. You always do what you are
"supposed" to, buy what you are "supposed" to, think what you are

Different channels for different products, chad. He obviously has it

All over here matey. Why waste your creative juice trying to "crack"
america and bring culture to the peasants. It's a hard slog. Sure -
there's lots of money to be made, but you have to sell out to american
consumerism to do it. If you're not too greedy, you can have a great
income from the european market. After all - do you really need $100M as

OK, so which is doing better, McDonalds in GB, or Mutton Hut in the

American culture they can get doesn't mean you have to be so jealous.

Nobody told me to buy Tool, Shootyz Groove, or 311. Since that
type of music is too heavy for your fragile eurowimps, I wouldn't
expect you to know what it is. Now run along to your discotheque and
prance around to your easy listening before someone gets hurt.

Of course, we'd never need to resort to that. The sweeds would be

"Aryan" originally means from Germanic descent, ie people from Germany
and The Netherlands. Therefore I have to laugh when I see people from
the U.K. and the people with obvious Anglosaxon names from U.S. call
themselves Aryans, since in the way Hitler and the rest of the fucking
Nazi's devised it "Aryan" means Germanic, period. Hitler did not
consider Anglo-saxons to be "Aryans". It just goes to show how stupid
people like sweety3 (c'mon, what is your real name?) and those other
Nazi's are! So, think about this when you call "non-Aryan" "mongrel
races"!
Martijn,
who's "Aryan" but not proud of it! I am however proud to be Dutch and
a member of the human race (of which I don't conside sweety3 and the
other members of his substandard fascist species to be part of!).
You really are in blissful ignorance of pathetic you sound.
Maybe people don't listen to that "music" because they don't want to??
Don't because it is "too heavy".

First, I'm not little by any strech of the imagination. Especially
when compared with you inbred, malnourished, skinny, weak europeans.
Second, just because a brit company was smart enough to buy BK doesn't
mean that BK is brit. If your brit food is so good (mmmm love that
mutton) why aren't there any brit originated chains here? In fact, I
can't think of much of anything made in GB that sells here. Oh yeah,
4 or 5 jaguars a year are sold here. Of course, they are owned by ford
anyways. Why do the brits drink their beer warm? Because their
refridgerators were designed by Lucas, the greatest brit mind ever.

Just shaddup for a moment and read this historical
account of that great American sailor, John Paul-Jones,
fresh from his monumental ass-kicking of that symbol
of British seapower, the SERAPIS:
On board the SERAPIS as his prize, Jones headed
east for Holland and, after a ten day's crippled
sail, limped into the Texel on October 3. His
destination requiring shelter in a neutral harbor
for his captive ship and the provisioning and care
of the wounded and guard of his prisoners, was
certain to make trouble for Holland with the
British and it did, exacerbating the British
resentment that already existed.
Editor's note: Some Dutch will tell you
that it was the French and Dutch who
helped the nascent and aborning nation
of America. Nonsense! It was we AMERICANS
that so obviously saved their asses against
a towering and seemingly invincible
English empire! England was the Evil Empire
of that century, running amok over EVERYBODY.
We soon put an end to that!
The Dutch people are for us, Jones reported, and
Adams relayed his words in a letter to Congress.
"Every day the blessed women come to the ships
in great numbers, mothers, daughters, even little
girls, bringing with them for our wounded all
the numberless little comforts of Dutch homes,
Editor's note: And not even charging
John Paul Jones and his crew for "it"
either! As anyone who is worldly
knows, that combined with 'swallowing it'
is indeed a sign of affection.
a tribute that came from the hearts of the people
and therefore far overlaid in effect all statecraft
and all diplomacy against us."
From Barbara Tuchman's "The First Salute", pg 84
Chap 6 'The Dutch and the English: Another War',
ISBN 0-345-33667-4

I'd like to bring my two surprise guest

We are such drooling anglophiles. I couldn't find something made
in GB if I tried. You don't build anything useful. Ford bought jaguar
because it cost them next to nothing. They have regretted the
purchase since they did it. Jaguar, and all other brit car companies
are outdated, poorly engineered and badly managed. Even the French
(ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha) make better cars than you do. Nobody buys

In a way, it worked out for GB. Since they didn't have any way to
keep things cool, they had to develop better beer, that would taste
good at room temp. Here in the US, with the ability to keep food and
drinks cold (you brits ought to buy some american refridgerators, they
are neat, no more having to kill you food when you want to eat), our
beer became sub standard.
Why should we buy american refridgerators ? What possible benefit could
they have over European appliances ?

You know tommy, the use of the word's "mamas boy" doesn't rile me. For a
start, how do you know I'm a boy ? Secondly - don't we all have mothers
? Apart from maybe you - who obviously started life abandoned and
stuffed down the back of a ladies toilet in Hoboken.
As for pretty tough - well, let's just say that brains can outwit brawn

resort. So - tough, who knows ? Compared to who ? However - every time I
have had to resort to violence, it has always been spectacularly

Oh really ? Just like it's well known around the world that all yanks
are fat, ignorant pigs. Ever hear of stereotypes ?
It's also well known around the world (to those that know of course -
which obviously doesn't include you) that a high proportion of the
worlds greatest and most innovative chefs are resident in the UK. and I
know for a fact that Gordon Ramsey didn't cook mutton for me last week.
So shut your mouth until you learn about the subject.
Or just admit that a Big Mac is the culinary high spot of your life.

You just can't afford of the high dollar imported British luxury goods.

Maybe i'll just get on with my life. I have one, you see. It involves
making lots more money than you are ever likely to see, whilst at the

Riight....the British film industry is doing very well thank you. We do
however, choose to make intelligent films dealing with real issues.
Typically - this doesn't appeal to american audiences unless there is
lots of violence and silicon enhanced bimbos. As you are aware, the
attention span of the average american is 12 minutes - this means that
your movies are all spasmodic action footage with no real content. Sure
- people go see crap yank movies, but we just don't take them seriously
like you guys do.

Honey-
Please try to distinguish between your opinions and hard facts. If you
dislike American movies that's fine. Since they are blockbusters
worldwide you at least have to admit that your view is a minority one.
Well let us know when you actually visit America so we can stop wasting
letters trying to convince you that your little world is fine and dandy,
but just a little world after all. I have never met an American who
would remotely think that a Big Mac, though delicious, is a culinary
high spot. Your bigoted little assumption is just that.

The US economy isn't only growing, it's leaving everyone else
behind at an accelerating rate. The only nation that will keep with
us in the next 100 years is China. I doubt you are that wealthy, or

British film industry? Thats a good one. What's that? A couple
mama's boys like yourself with a 10 year old videocamera? Hey, if you
don't like american movies, quit going to so many of them. American
movie companies make billions of the european market every year. I
guess you don't have any of your own fare to watch. Sorry mama's boy.

What's this, a Brit, taking shots at American food <G>. Anglophilic as
I am, British food ain't exactly high cuisine. Take kidney pie; We used
to feed our dog kidneys. I figured the Brits with their inventive talent
had figured out some way to keep them from tasting like piss. So, my first
time there I tried some. Nope, they still need to work on it <G>..
Dr. P
Hardly.
I'll see you next month then.

Hey, fat tom - you are one dumb son of a bitch, and what's more - you

Nice argument though - "they work" - presumably you are trying to say
that European refridgerators don't function correctly ? If so, you are
very wrong indeed. Think about it - we had fridges before you did.

Well, where shall we start ? (and by the way - why are you fixated with
mutton ? Is it a spin off from your sheep shagging days ?)
Contributions to world cuisine include: English mustard, the best
sausages in the world, specialty roasted meats, various types of
seafood, bacon with meat on it, fine cheeses, many kinds of preserves,
fish and chips (yes - fish and chips is considered a culinary classic),
alcoholic ciders, the best quality beef in the world, the best quality
lamb in the world, real beer, the sandwich, beef wellington, sponge
puddings, black pudding, haggis, spring greens, curly kale, the kipper,
Arbroath Smokies, the Yorkshire pudding, etc, etc, etc.....

How do you figure the US is going to hell in a handbasket? Just
because that is what you want to happen, it doesn't mean its going ot
happen. Why don't you provide some statistics to back up your absurb
claim? Just because your lame nation slid 18 places down the economic
ladder in 70 years doesn't mean it will happen to us. In fact, who do

Oh, here we go again. Not only did the inbred europussies have
refrigerators first, but they work. yeah, right. Next you'll be
telling us that you invented the internet, and GM is an english
company, and the prodigy are the greatest band ever, and that brit
cars are good, the list goes on and on. Get off it mama's boy. You
suck, and your brit craps sucks too. Nobody wants it, nobody buys it
unless it is subsidised by your lamer government. Gotta keep those
layabouts busy.
I wouldn't have used such language but ya gotta admit that he has a
powerful point. If British filmas are so much better, how come the
government has to protect them from open, fair competition (same thing
for autos, agri. commodities, aeroplanes, auto parts, etc. etc. etc.).
Sorry brits,
Stan Collins
I never claimed that. I simply pointed out to you that you make shit
movies. Which is completely true. I don't see any backpedalling there
tommy.

What you are saying is just your opinion. My point was that
obviously many of YOUR countrymen, in fact MOST of YOUR OWN countrymen
don't agree with you. That doesn't make you wrong, but realize that
you are certainly in the minority opinion.

Qualify best: It is the single largest chain in the world. Many
people like it. I'm not a big fan of it, but will eat it if I am in a
hurry. You europeans just can't get it through your thick heads that
some people like different things than you. Not all of us want to eat
diseased cattle, or deep fried fish and french fries. Sorry, we just
aren't the conformists you are. Mcdonalds is certainly a very
sucessful chain. Authur Treacher's Fish and Chips, on the other hand,
is not. Also, for some reason, Mad Cow Burger Hut hasn't quite caught
on either. Even your fellow europeans don't want your beef.

You don't understand the U.S. Navy, Martin. There's no way a Swede
pilot in a Swede plane should be able to blindside an Aegis. The
electronics in one of those things is built to take you out even if
you're flying 5 feet off the deck. Someone screwed up, and you don't
get two chances in the Navy.

We believe that everyone wants different things. That's why there are so
few fast food chains in Europe. We prefer small, independant
restaurants, regional specialities, and new ideas from indvidual chefs.
As opposed to bland, conformist fast food menus. It's a concept we call
"freedom".

You mean the whole swede air force made it through? Wow,
impressive. What were you going to do, drop salt bread on the ships?
Maybe call them names and whine about how you invented ships, and

There are plenty of 'small independent' restaurants here. You just
don't know what the fuck you are talking about. Just in this area,
with a population of ~750,000,000 there are almost 1000 restaurants
NOT including chains like McDonalds, etc. That also doesn't include
taverns and such that serve smaller menus. Once again, you are just
jealous that we have both options here. Face it, you are just jealous
of all things american. Maybe you should just admit it and get on
with your life. The best and smartest of your nations left there to
come here. Why do you suppose that is?

Right - so in an area with a population nearly three times that of
america, there are only one thousand restaurants - so each restaurant
must serve a catchment of three quarters of a million people ?? Well _ I
know the wait for tables at some of my favourite restaurants can be a
couple of weeks - but jesus tommy - you must have to wait about five
years to get a table !

I think he meant that many of the most motivated and intelligent
Europeans emigrated over the last 150 years to the USA.
The European Jewish nation, or the portion that could, emigrated as
quickly as possible in the 30's. Most to America. In the 19th Century
a huge chunk of Ireland left for Boston and New York. In the early 20th
C several million Poles moved to Chicago.

Cause british movies are not for a below average person with no brains
but for people who can think. Since theare are only 10% of "thinking"
people in each country no wonder that stupidity blossoms.
Also I doubt that in England there are millions of mexicans who work for
$1/hour or even "natives" who work for $5/hour as it is very common in
US. So the cost is higher and it is harder to compete. But that does not
mean that the quality of american(chinese?) goods is superior. On the
contrary.

By your own argument, 90% of UK film production must therefore be crap,
too.
An outstanding command of logic!

An interesting assertion!
Please show me *anyone* working on a US movie production earning either
$1 or $5 per hour. (Other than college students working on their
student film projects, who work for zip.)
I'm quite familiar with the film production industry in the US. It's
quite unionized, and quite expensive. However, we do it without
substantial government subsidy.
You were saying?

Having had the severe misfortune of owning and working on UK made
automobiles and motorcycles, I see >NOTHING< that supports your
assertion.
If your UK-made autos, airplanes, appliances, etc., are so superior,
why do they command such a miserably small segment of the global
market?

Anglophobia! Why, I remember seeing a Rolls Royce (not mine) with handcrafted

Translation: McDonalds is buying space in petrol stations and putting in
mini burger stands. As for the regional specialities, putting sauerkraut
on your burger hardly makes it a German regional speciality. and I
hardly call a couple of those brown plastic trash cans "infrastructure"
- just more corporate mental masturbation.

arguments do not completely understand their own.
Hear, hear, Bill. Something has to be done to control these deficits.
My mind boggles at the demagoguery of the present administration
regarding balanced budgets. Can these people really be so jaded and
irresponsible as to think that they can continue to spend like there's
no tomorrow? It seems that the politicos will have to dragged kicking
and screaming into the realities of the 21st Century. They just don't
want to face it.
America needs a lot of work, but it's still the best place to be IMHO.

That's true wader. However, you CAN sell 95 billion burgers to people

campaigns. Did your kids ever ask you to take em to McD's Wader ? Had
they seen the TV ads promising free toys and a great fun time. Do you

Sorry, epinice, for inturrupting. But do we really have to discuss
McDonalds ? they don't even have fucking knives and forks. the
food is pre-chewed. the waitresses are ugly.
lets stay serious. if twix likes to eat at mc, let him. (i can picture
him now: fat belly under and on the table, diet coke, joggin shoes,
grease on his chin, elbows on the table, munch munch munch.
everybody his own, i guess).

Yes, we all know how sucessful Ford was in selling Edsels. Really,
something like 80% of new products fail. If your contention was correct,
this wouldn't be the case. Hence, your contention is wrong.
