"Beefy's Corner".......For all off Topic threads

No, that would be far too simplistic. In the case of Greece, it's largely because they think they should all be retiring at 50, and because those who do work don't work hard enough.

 

I'll go live in the USA then, the best country in the world.

 

I wouldn't mind living in the USA.....

 

Don't you think the Greeks have had enough of the Germans by now? They hate them anyway.

 

Had enough of what exactly? All the money they've gifted them? Would they have preferred their economy to completely collapse?

 

Worse healthcare, worse public services, worse crime, more poverty, more guns, more illegal drug trade, shorter life expectancy. Sure, what's not to love?

 

Just a reminder that generalising about a countries inhabitants is at best stereotyping and at worst racism. Let's leave that out please.

 

Better people, better army, better cities, better weather, amazing scenary.

They are the leaders of the world, what's not to love?

They've got the best doctors in the world, the only problem is the fact that healthcare costs so much. If you want the best healthcare go live in Cuba.

 

Better climate, better lifestyle, more Americans, more countryside, etc.

 

Better army? How does that make it a better place to live?

 

Most ignorant, misguided and bigoted post I've ever seen on this forum.

 

I have never been racist, I just don't like foreigners, unless of course they play for the Saints.

 

Yeah for all it's good aspects, American foreign policy leaves a lot to be desired. At least it's a bit better under Obama though.

 

It can protect the country in a better manner, in a more secure manner. More job opportunities .

 

It's true. Greeks hate Germans, like most of the world.

You must have a short memory Joe, I certainly don't.

 

I'd like to think most of the world don't generalise an entire nation.

I'd probably be wrong, but such is the problem with idealism.

 

Those two words jumped out at me in that post. I'm quite certain now that Mr Ramirez is a teenager. And more luck to him. But only a kid could write something so silly.

Listen son, you seem to have a lot of anger pent up inside you. Go join the local gym or boxing club or summat and work off that negative energy. You'll feel far better for it.

 

People hated Germans in the 1940s. Since then everyone but you has got over it.

 

There are at least 5 Portsmouths in the USA one in New Hampshire, one in Ohio, one in Rhode Island one in Iowa, and one in Virginia take your pick. http://www.welcometoportsmouth.co.uk/other portsmouth.html

 

Greeks, Poles, French...and me.
