How can you expect a country that takes money from their people, cares nothing about it's people, and that refuses to recognize Taiwan or Tibet as their own countries, to actually be beneficial to the rest of the world? I know our government has been playing the rest of the world for a long, long time, but it isn't like we the people want this or even know about this. It's something as a country we do need to solve, though; the people aren't in control anymore. Most of the big companies pay off politicians in "favors" to vote in their favor.
And you can't say at all that you aren't biased either, Rob.
Problem is opinions here, this was just sparked by a silly list that has nothing of real value. I was just arguing about economics and finances, which are pretty much undeniable because they're massive numbers only and fluctuations that we can *sort of* measure (2008 crisis, bla bla, I know that).
If I were to counter your argument I shouldn't invest a penny on the US either, because it's a country that supports war through it's taxes. It's moot arguing this.
