on top of that the benafit system rather than help and suport people locks people into depending on it. there are people in the uk who will be born into benafites and live there life on it, and having kids due to it.

in truth england has had its day unless somthing changes.

we will see china, india, and many asian countries become the new business countries.

but we could also say what about the usa?

the usa used to produce great cars, and have great businesses (as in the mamma and pappa shops). but these days is the usa just bland? the cars are dull, no one outside the usa realy buys them. and all the businesses seem to be just franchises.

american football is as dull as soccor. in fact its just silly. its basicly rugby but in body armor.
