    Canada's Top Ten List of America's Stupidity

    OUTDOORS UNLIMITED.net ^

    Canadian's Version of David Letterman's Top 10 Just makes you wanna shake your head in disbelief. This is Canada's Top Ten List of America's Stupidity Of course we look like idiots ..... because we are.


    Number 10
    Only in America could politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000.00 per plate Obama campaign fund-raising event.



    Number 9
    Only in America ...could people claim that the government still discriminates against black Americans when they have a black President, a black Attorney General and roughly 20% of the federal workforce is black while only 13% of the population is black 40+% of all federal entitlements goes to black Americans - 3X the rate that go to whites, 5X the rate that go to Hispanics!



    Number 8
    Only in America...could they have had the two people most responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner (the head of the Treasury Department) and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means Committee), BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.



    Number 7
    Only in America...can they have terrorists kill people in the name of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims might be harmed by the backlash.



    Number 6
    Only in America...would they make people who want to legally become American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they discuss letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just 'magically' become American citizens (probably should be number one).



    Number 5
    Only in America....could the people who believe in balancing the budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as EXTREMISTS.



    Number 4
    Only in America...could you need to present a driver's license to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.



    Number 3
    Only in America...could people demand the government investigate whether oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. Oil company(Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes (Nike).



    Number 2
    Only in America... could you collect more tax dollars from the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a Trillion dollars more than it has per year - for total spending of $7-Million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money.



    And Number 1
    Only in America...could the rich people- who pay 86% of all income taxes - be accused of not paying their "fair share" by people who don't pay any income taxes at all.

      I've learnt by bitter experience not to say what I think about the USA here on SnusOn ... It must just be some massive coincidence that all you 'Murcans here on SnusOn are the nicest people in the world ... Despite everything!

        I'd never be offended by what a foreigner says about stupid things americans do. With the exception of understanding that welfare and nationalized healthcare here doesn't work out that great for reasons most foreigners can't understand, yes most things we do are stupid. We elect people that we know won't follow their promises, we spend money even though we owe so much already the list goes on

              Yea but not every country enshrines stupidity.......basis policy, educational standards, and large chucks of budgetary spending to ensure that stupid is the norm

              back in the days of the wild west......we just shot stupid and moved on

              When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers

                  And we hired a Canadian company to build our Healthcare website with a budget of $91 million . It's cost us $840 million to date. For decades, our politicians have thought that they can fix anything by throwing money at a problem, rather than make smart, creative decisions and do it right in the first place

                            Really? If that was written by a Canadian I'll eat my shorts. That's the work of a lying tea bagger (are there any other kind?), as I seriously doubt any Canadian wouldn't love to exchange their tax code for that of the United States. And please, "Number 8 Only in America...could they have had the two people most responsible for our tax code..." Our? Oops. Idiots can't even proofread.
