Fortunately, I can't relate to your position well, and UNFORTUNATELY you live in England and can't relate to my type of National Pride.
America's founding was one of the most notable and important freedom-boosting significant global events of all time. If you don't appreciate that break from England's tyranny and the role money plays in it, that's fine. You're a dope anyway. Follow the money, don't ya know.
