The Left Wing vs Right Wing World (INFOGRAPHIC)

[kelvin070]

it may work very well for you,...and if it works for you great...more power to you
honestly all i know is what i read about and what i see on youtube...and it seems that you guys have just as many "government issues" as we do, just in different areas.

Every country has issues but unlike the bickering among Republicans and Democrats

 

[Codrus]

let me just add this.

if your system does away with the corruption, waste, politcal greed and actually represents/listens and strives to do what is in the best interests of/for the people of the country., then im all for it......but again, i havent really seen it

Yup! It's no better and no worse. Certainly not something to be mocked and laughed about like our system of government is a joke and in some way inferior to yours.

yes, across the pond they have different titles

i wasnt trying to make fun or mock it...that was not my intent...sorry, i should have added more to it.

They;'re not unique if thats what you are getting at. You imagine that in some countries, the two most closely faught political oppositons don't 'bicker?'

Its not the same. After elections people in those countries will work towards a common goal. But in USA 9 months after elections they still haggling abt Nobel Peace prize and stimulus package.

I don't know what countries you are talking about.

But look at Italy, half the bloody country is up in arms about Berlisconi. And I'll tell you for free that over here Labour and conservatives will never agree over anything ever.

I refuse to believe that you think the USA is the only country like this.

Of course there are other countries too but when you play Uncle Sam to the rest of the world all eyes will be on you.

I think I get Kelvins point. Of course all countries opposition parties squabble but the USA seem to detract from the real issues by silly and very personal attacks on each other. That said, Kelvin does seem kind of oblivious to African and Asian countries who prefer killing the opposition instead!

LOL, I have to admit that but at the end of the day what matters is that the govt deliver the goods and they are doing pretty well here.

24::24: Yeh sure they kill their opposition, but the really important thing is .....

Didm't you guys claim that Obama won it with his blatant lies? And that with a formidable opposition. Better to kill the opposition before they start to lie.

 

[Tangerine]

Let me qoute your countryman Tangerine in PP's thread on UK election.
"The fact that you have choices beyond Republican and Democrats tells me that you are more likely to find a good leader than we in the US will anytime soon"

I appreciate that you chose to quote me, but my comment had absolutely NOTHING to do with the idea of Parliamnary style of government, only the idea that a two-party system doesn't provide enough options for quality candidates and invites and embraces power-brokering and corruption.

I was not reffering to the Parliamentary style either but at your diplomacy rather than laughing in disgust at my comment by that person without saying a word.

Won "it", the presidency? He didn't lie at all. He's trying to do everything he promised ... it's just that nobody had any idea what he really meant by "fundamentally transform" the USA.

And no, it is never, ever, ever better to kill the political opposition for being politically opposing. Not under any circumstance. This is the land of freedom, and we value freedom of speech and free thinking.

im thinking your refering to me as "that person"...maybe im mistaken,

but after i wake up and i see this

Hell no! That will only take away the office of President, arguably ceding even more power to the political parities.

But it worked well in Europe.

my natural reaction was this

:24::24:

not everyone thinks perfectly clearly in the morning...me even more so. the first thought im my head was..."europe never had a president"....so i thought it was funny.

and again,..no matter what the system of government may be.....we all have our ploitical problems,...but amazingly you still have more people wanting to come to the U.S. to try and make a better life than anywhere else...hmmm.... we must really suck.

again maybe im wrong

To each his own really. Cummunist China is prospering while others are reeling the effects of the financial meltdown. Your system is good for you and its like a software which nobody can copy. If they copy they will fail.

Prospering? I'm sure there are quite of few of the billion plus people living there who don't feel very "prosperous" in the oppresion and poverty they are mired in.

Out of curiosity... have you ever lived in the US or are you just forming your opinions based on an outside view of how our lifestyle and politics really are?
