They sit there sipping their tea acting better than us Americans but lets do a rundown

1: Freedoms of speech
2. Right to bear arms
3.The worlds first black president
4.The worlds first woman President of the United states
5. We dont have to pay for our TV service

You guys in America might not realize this but euro peons actually have to spend money in order to get TV service. They like to sit there, all smug in their top hats but they have to pay for the BBC. Your mom didn't pay for that BBC, i saw it on pornhub for free.

I think there might be a country or two in Africa that elected a black president before the US. Can't be bothered to look it up though.

I don't get any of that. You start by saying they look down on America. The. Do a run down with bad info. Number 4 has not happened yet and yes i get free porn online but i have to pay for internet or for tv service as well.

then your last paragraph is a bad your mom joke.

I went to barcelona recently and fell in love with the city and now I want to move there but then I found out it has 28% unemployment and they have secret police

but also the women are like 5 times more attractive than american women on average and they show their titties at the beach so I'm torn

yeah what a dumb concept, just add a bit to the income tax or whatever to cover the BBC. why fund a bunch of goons to patrol around scanning for "rogue" tvs? just make everyone pay for it.

well I think the idea is if you tax everything, everything is provided for you instead of having to take out a second mortgage cause you stubbed your toe but enough hyperbole from me bye

Since I'm never going to pay for porn in my entire life, I would be ok with the government taxing me for porn and distributing the proceedes accordingly. It only seems fair.

It's not road tax, it's vehicle excise duty and is based on emissions. £550 is some ridiculous poo poo, do you drive a loving coal burning powerstation??
