our media rip the president apart, they are allowed to curse and talk about almost any subject. we dont normally show nudety if not blurred. some of that is restricted by popularity more than the government
Lets take the Iraq war for example.. There was a quite a few horrible mistakes with civilians dying down there, but neither cnn, fox news or the general news papers showed much from that dark side.. Instead they mostly showed positive aspect of the war, like the people cheering for the fact that Saddam was brought down. I dont know who to blame, but there are quite a few filtering of the news. And i dont think it is true that allow cursing over there? It seems like all public channels over there are forced to censor word like "damn, {bleep}, hell" and so on. Pay channels i guess is different.. And then you have this thing about nudity... It is ok to show violence and murder, but as soon as something as natural as skin shows, then there is problems..
And i think pretty much all western countries today allow people or comdeians to make fun of or bash the politicians/governmen.
But the news issue was what i really meant anyways.
When it comes to homeless people.. You actually dont see much of them around here, due to that all people here have right for a roof over their house and money for food even if they do not work.
But i am not saying that my country is better than US overall. I am very far from a patriot and think there is loads of things that are not working right in this country and there are many countries that i would rather live in to be honest.
I responded because you sounded like you thought everything was perfect in USA, so i felt like i had to point out the fact that you have a quite few flaws over there as well. And that people should have the right to complain about their own country if there is something they would like to improve.
