Why are you guys so anti-dictatorship? Imagine if America was a
dictatorship! You could let 1% of the people have all the nation’s
wealth. You could help your rich friends get richer by cutting their
taxes and bailing them out when they gamble and lose. You could ignore
the needs of the poor for health-care and education. Your media would
appear free; but would secretly be controlled by one person and his
family. You could wire-tape phones. You could torture foreign prisoners.
You could have rigged elections. You could lie about why you go to war.
You could fill your prisons with one particular racial group and no one would complain.
You could use the media to scare the people into supporting policies
that are against their interests. I knew this is hard for you Americans
to imagine, but please: try!
I in no way endorse this movie, but this last line almost made it worthwhile. But it didn't.
