Oh haha did you think any of them actually have any solutions? No they just want to complain and pretend they are better than others.

people down voting you but IMO

they just want to complain and pretend they are better than others.

is absolutely an American trait.

I think a lot of the complaints are coming from people in countries that don't know their own histories so well. Consider the damages European colonizers inflicted on Africa and the far East up until the 1960s. Hell Europeans didn't even stop the killings in Europe until then. But it seems they earned some hard-learned lessons since (like Helsinki's solution for homelessness) (and making the Raspberry Pi) and keeping the peace in Europe. There MUST be some well-thought-out solutions to be shared, right?
