I think this is actually getting at something fundamentally wrong - TopicsExpress



          

I think this is actually getting at something fundamentally wrong with us as a country, because a lot of Americans feel this way; Ann Coulters just the only one with the balls to say this shit publicly. But the thing is, even though shes insane, I bet a lot of Americans agree with her that soccer is lame because its too team-oriented. And thats what wrong with America: We think being team-oriented is a -bad- thing, when indeed, its what makes us succeed as a race. But America is the only society in history that has framed what is by far our greatest feature—being able to socialize each other—into a supposed weakness. A lot of people seem to think that being completely independent is that answer. But its not. Im not saying being completely dependent is the answer either. Im saying its obviously a balance between the two. And as long as we keep up our bull-headed do-it-yourself mentality, which it will probably take a self-imposed apocalypse to remove, were never going to succeed as a country. I almost never make political posts, but thats my $0.02 on this.
