coogar:Pls let's desist from spreading falsehood. The last time i checked, the US had a total of 425 billionaires against Russia's 96. So, i don't know where you get such malicious lie that Russia has more billionaires than the US. You guys can just got to any extent to prove a point even if means pulling stats outa your azz. Try again. |

Let's get back to the crime and murder rates. The two countries are basically brothers with the same language - gatts love for yanks, especially AAs. UK = belly and brain of the beast. America = body of the beast. But still the same beast, ya dig? |

Dear me ........ here we go again, adults arguing about other people's countries. |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by coogar: 10:39pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
Afam4eva: 96? russia has 96 billionaires? they definitely have more than that unless you are counting dummies! Afam4eva: never.... |

collynzo2: Dear me ........ here we go again, adults arguing about other people's countries. Bro., it's just banter and fun - nothing serious. I'm just laughing my ar.se off, as I'm posting. |

Americans(especially New Yorkers) are soft-talkers and their accent sound soft as hell as well. But most of them are psychos. They'll kill you just for the sake of it - they don't give two fvcks. Only an American would blow ya off head with a smile on his face. |

coogar:They have more than 96? Oya, let's see your proof. Shoot and don't talk. |

Afam4eva:But size should be a factor in this case because for her size, Britain is heads and shoulders above US. Take Britain's 94000 sq mi and place it anywhere in the US - now you tell me where in the world you get an economy worth $2.4 trillion. That's right, NOWHERE! |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Afam4eva(m): 10:48pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar:Let's assume that it's correct or let's say it's correct. is that even as half as the number of billionaires that America has. Just accept that you goofed and move on. Next time you want to make assertion, confirm and be sure before spitting it out. |

collynzo2: Dear me ........ here we go again, adults arguing about other people's countries. Ol'boy nawa ooo. E tire me too. And the irony of the whole be say I follow dey argue too. No blame me jare, na because say my city na NYC. Even at that, it's no excuse for the childishness of the whole argument. Thank you shaa, I don snap out of the childishness. |

All these people arguing endlessly for London or New York City.....my Sabon Gari beta pass those cities - has more character and happy people |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by coogar: 10:54pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
Afam4eva: but you said they have 96.... the point is even irrelevant - the number of billionaires in a country does not represent the well-being of that country. the country with the fewest number of poor people would be the best and you cannot argue UK do not have fewer poor people than america per population! UK wins by default! |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Afam4eva(m): 11:00pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar:Lol Whenn all fails, you result to your usual unintelligent assertions bereft of facts. Of course there will be more poor people in the US because the US is a country with about 300 million people compared to UK's 67 million. isn't that common sense? But most growth index puts the UK at the mercy of the US. It's not even a contest. It's a walk over. |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by coogar: 11:08pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
Afam4eva: you are a lunatic! when all fails? russia with their huge number of billionaires is not better than the poorest county in the UK. why? cos they have more poor people than any country in the western europe. there's no middle class in russia. you have billionaires, a huge void and the regular joes. by your logic, russia is better than denmark? lololol
more poor people per population?
which stüpid growth index? |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Afam4eva(m): 11:14pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar:You're a joker. You're just making a fool of yourself. So, a UK country is now better than Russia? I think you need help. You're just seeing this issue in plain black and white. You're talking of standard of living while we're talking of a general appraisal of a country's worth. Scandinavian countries like Denmark, Finland, Sweden etc may have a high standard of living but when it comes to other aspects, they fall short. For heavens sake, these countries are small and really don't have huge responsibilities, so you shouldn't even be comparing them with titans of countries like Russia. Instead of the UK to compare itself with these Scandinavian countries, South Africa, Spain and France, they want to rub shoulders with the big boys. Shoe they say get size. |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by coogar: 11:25pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
Afam4eva: UK is the heartbeat of europe....you should see how russians get into the back of trucks to come into the UK.
what could be better than a high standard of living? do you even know what you are talking about? what makes a country better than the other if not the well-being of the people staying there. america's suffering index is way too high to be compared to most countries in europe. it's all about wealth distribution - it makes no sense to have 500 billionaires and have 20 million people in abject poverty. the scandinavians might not even have a single billionaire but poverty is almost non-existent: that's the way a country should be run! |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Nobody: 11:26pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
Afam4eva: Afam, why do you hate the UK so much, bro.? I know the UK system can mess people up mentally, but it's a system where you may never get rich, but you can never be piss poor. And if you're the type that can work non-stop like a slave and know how to manipulate the system - you'll save enough to get close to middle-class out here. And there are tons of people who have mastered the science the system and have become millionaires easily out here(like Indians). Also, UK is pretty strong for its size - its GDP is probably higher than that of America per ratio. |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Afam4eva(m): 11:28pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar:Here's a list of the richest countries in the world which renders your assertion useless. While US is placed 8th, the UK is placed 22nd. This isn't even a contest. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_%28PPP%29_per_capita |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by coogar: 11:30pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
shymexx: eddy murphy's coming to america has deceived afam! he's living in lala land thinking the country is rosy. it's a very shitty country. you cannot get to one end of the country to another without spending days on the road! you know a country is shït when you have 5 different time zones in it. Afam4eva: this list is useless, it's not pro-rated! |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Afam4eva(m): 11:31pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar:If anything, Eddie Murphy's "Coming to America" paints the country as a ghetto infested one. It doesn't do justice to America. So, there's not way that could have been a motivating factor for my fondness for America. |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Afam4eva(m): 11:33pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar:if it doesn't sit with your assertion, you begin to invent English. it's either it's an American link or it's pro-rated. God punish Pro-rated. So, do we take what come out of your mouth against verifiable fact? What is wrong with you people sef. All talk and no substance. I've been the one producing links and prooof and all you do is rebuff them without providing an alternative. |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by coogar: 11:35pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
Afam4eva: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Poverty_Index that's how to rate wealth in respective countries.... afam, when you talk less, you would learn more! 1 Like |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Afam4eva(m): 11:40pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar:You just proved my point that the UK is a cesspit. How can a country so small yet competing with the US(a country soooooo big) somewhere down the ladder when the likes of Canada and scandinavian countries are far ahead. You should be ashamed for even providing that link. It just points to the fact that the UK is not only overrated but shameless...That wasn't even a report for 2007-2008 and things have gotten worse for the UK and other european countries, so their position now will be someone between pitiable and astronomical. it's a shame really. |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by coogar: 11:48pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
Afam4eva: you are a disgrace! UK is the dumping ground of the other liabilities in europe. they are having to deal with eastern europeans flooding their channels and yet they still punch above their weight and their people live a far comfortable life than the americans! things have gotten far worse for america since then than nigeria, america suffered in the financial meltdown! watch them pull out of EU and see how better they would get. their pound is still stronger than the euro(the collective currency of her neighbours). it's a myth that americans live a better life than any country in western europe. if the human poverty index is high in america then having 600 billionaires in the country has no essence. you have been sonned, afam! |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Nobody: 11:53pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar: Bwahahahahahahaha @ the bolded. You travel around America and your time is still going to be the same thing. You leave NY at 2pm, get to Cali, and it's still 2pm over there. Dead!! |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Afam4eva(m): 11:57pm On Jun 03, 2013 |
coogar:Bleh! Germany remains the most important country in the EU. Should the UK leave, it won't be felt one bit and the French president echoes it and he has a good point http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/francois-hollande/10062935/Europe-can-survive-without-Britain-says-Francois-Hollande.html You have been schooled. Now, you know the name of your teaccher, Afam. |
Re: 25 People Shot In 48 Hours In New York by Nobody: 12:02am On Jun 04, 2013 |
Afam4eva: America can't compete with the Germans as well. Germans are a different breed of people. Forget about what happened post world war 2 - Germans are overly efficient in everything. |
