Capitalism sucks, America. Sure the technology is great, and it's the only economic form that works and it promotes the rights of man, but it comes with greed and consumerism/materialism.
And television is crap.

Am I the only one who is scared that Brian is making a list of all of our names and locations, and that he only made this thread because the government gave him a quota of Anti-Americans he had to expose?

Greed and materialism are part of human nature, not the result of an economic system.
Capitalism doesn't make people greedy - they already are.

I forgot: Americans faked the moon landing.
That's mostly because they were trying hard to seem smart and thought filming a desert at night would fool the Russians.

I wouldn't say that I am necessarily Anti-American, however I would like to point out that criticisms of the US and the behaviours of its government and people are not the same thing as being Anti-American (as many Americans have been swift to label me as when I make points not in favour of their nation). Additionally, simply because another nation is not American does not instantly make it inferior and worthy of hate/hostility.
