Only a quarter of Americans have a passport.Experiencing other cultures broadens your perspective and understanding of the world.

I once saw a study that showed that 1/7th of US University graduates couldn't find their country on a map.Americans are the most ignorant lot in the West,starting with their President.I heard Obama's experience of Europe is one overnight stay in London(he is chairman of the Senate subcommittee on European Affairs)

Imani:

It depends on what type of technology you are talking about. How can a country that co-develop the Concorde, not have the necessary technological prowess.

Imani:

By the way, when next are the US going to be asking for more troops for the "coalition led war" . I thought you guys were capable by yourselves.

Imani:

I met quite a few americans

You 4Play and Jackal, you people like putting words in someone's mouth sha. I never said anything about the crime in the UK being higher. Of course NOT. Just saying that we don't give our prisoners 5 star treatment like you guys.

Anyway I do like /actually LOVE your Brit music, , now stop crying

because of illigal migration, dnt blame the country for that. . .and plz dnt tell me that UK does not have its own immigration problems

When 7-7 hits us? At least we caught all the culprits through the aid of our 2 million CCTV cameras.
Y'all peops don't catch nuthing. . . . . You just pick and arrest innocent moslems on instincts and throw em in Guantanmo.
How many times have American counter-terrorists units come to the UK to learn how to conduct investigation on terrorists.
Y'all peops are far behind.

They even rearrange the position of the toilets to face away from Mecca in order to appease the Mus'lims in prisons.
The place is a joke.
Everything they earn goes in VAT
No wonder they have to count change before buying those 99 pence tesco bread.

@Danity

You can get broadband for free! How is your dial-up ? You can always console yourself by resorting to 4Him's history books were the US invented the web all by themselves.

That's very low. I'm going off NL soon. I'll soon come and stay there for good. I don't have dial-up!!!!!!!!!!! You're not serious

@ Imani, it amazes me when some of them just watch discovery channel and they start talking based on that only.

@ Nwando,

Prisoners have rights as well. . . . .They are human beings.
Our taxes pay for their well-being in Prison and we are not complaining.
These days, they are allowed PS2/PS3 games, gym and educational training to keep their minds busy.
What do u give y'all prisoners? I heard there is a Sheriff in Arizona that feeds Prisoners on expired foods.
Blimey. . . . . . .Are y'all really a developed country?
Your appaling ways of handling issues will amke Idi Amin green with envy.

A combination of expensive health insurance and an ever-increasing rate of obesity appear to be behind a startling fall by the US in the world rankings of life expectancy.

Despite being one of the richest countries in the world, America has dropped from 11th to 42nd place in 20 years, according to official US figures.


The lack of health care available to many Americans - 45 million have no health insurance - is set to be one of the biggest issues in next year's presidential election campaign. The Democratic contenders all promise universal health care.

The decline reflects the disparity in wealth.The life expectancy of African Americans is 73.3 compared with 77.9 for whites. For African-American males, it is even shorter: 69.8.Countries with longer life expectancy include most of Europe, Japan, Singapore and Jordan.

Now we know why y'all hop onto virgin atlantic with a polythene bag full of "milky way" for your folks and call it a gift.
Who wants to receive a packet of bazooka joe from his beloved son who's been in London for 10 years

It's your taxes.
Keep providing them with Xboxes,I'm sure some of y'all would rather be in prison

nollywood movies a sign of good standard of living?

Imani:

Would those perpertrators be Nigerians by any chance? That proves the point " you can take the Nigerian out of Nigeria but you can't take Nigeria out of the Nigerian?, Hope you catch my drift!!! Nigerians will be Nigerians whichever part of the world they reside. There are "juju" in America too, oh i forget, you guys know nothing "outside" your district/state.
