we definitely are. No other country dictates what goes on around the world more than the US. Everyone knows who our leader is, but we could care less about who runs other countries. Why is this? do you think the United States of America is the center of the world?
I would argue that the Middle East as a region more dictates what goes on around the world, but that yes, the US is the center of the world as far as countries go.
You know about the economic crisis the States are in right? I agree with an above poster for sure: Center of attention lol I wonder if Fort Knox is actually empty...
it's a fact for the world because our presence cannot go unnoticed and we are a very prosperous nation. Even people from other countries use things we make, like gamespot OT.
The exact center of the world? No. The center of attention? Most of the time. But that isn't necesarrily a good thing. You americans should stop thinking so highly of yourself. America isn't the greatest place ever. Sure, you have some pretty neat places, but overall it's pretty shltty

Nice generalizations.
That's what I'm here for. Stereotypes and putting my foot in people's arses.

That's what I'm here for. Stereotypes and putting my foot in people's arses. You're totally right. A large precentage of Americans think way too highly of their country. In reality, it's not that great. It's not horrible, but I wouldn't call it a good country. We're just okay.

What's an example of a good country?
The UK. We don't stand for hate speech because we gots manners.

Thank you for not jumping me, because I don't agree with "America being superior". I'm not saying ALL of America sucks, but really. New Jersey. Need I say any more?
typical third world country feet.

I'm not from a third world country, Newt Gingrich.
[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"] A country without free speech is not an example of a good country... We do have free speech. But freedom of speech has its exceptions and that's one of them.

We do have free speech. But freedom of speech has its exceptions and that's one of them. I think the UK needs a lot of work on freedom of speech. Not a shining example of what freedom of speech should be about.

High taxes, low temperatures, and.....free healthcare.
[QUOTE="SolidSnake35"][QUOTE="chessmaster1989"] A country without free speech is not an example of a good country... We do have free speech. But freedom of speech has its exceptions and that's one of them. Free speech? FBI closing Megaupload, even when the founders shouldn't be held accountable under American laws because they aren't americans, the average American homeowner not getting the news information they are entitled to, because news networks are censored more than you realize ? Free speech my ass.

Whatever floats your boat.
High taxes aren't a bad thing when your taxes aren't wasted like they are here in the US. I would much rather pay a higher tax rate and have something great come out of it, rather than paying a low tax rate just so my money can go to the benefit of a corrupt government.
