Yes, but who in their right minds want to emigrate to britain when it is full of Dr Adequate types and ruled by the same? Get rid of those A-wipes and their rulers and we will emigrate like gang busters.

Hey, Brits - can you kick out all of the Dr. A types. Please. Pretty please.

That way, all of the tea party A-wipes from America will go there, leaving the USA a far better place.

Re: Freedom of choice?

Not the most attractive of deals...

I didn't expect you to jump for it.

I'm assuming that Brits are good enough at recognizing sarcasm, that they would not be offended by my "suggestion."

Re: Freedom of choice?

The "birther" nonsense is used by dramatic attention-seekers like Trump, and otherwise is exclusively used by absolute loons with the biggest case of "sour grapes" in recent memory.

It is mostly used by racists, to encourage people to vote their racism while allowing them to delude themselves that they are not actually racist.

Tax the Rich: An animated fairy tale

[I think this video fits the theme of this thread]

link

description writes:

Published on Dec 5, 2012
Tax the rich: An animated fairy tale, is narrated by Ed Asner, with animation by Mike Konopacki. Written and directed by Fred Glass for the California Federation of Teachers. An 8 minute video about how we arrived at this moment of poorly funded public services and widening economic inequality. Things go downhill in a happy and prosperous land after the rich decide they don't want to pay taxes anymore. They tell the people that there is no alternative, but the people aren't so sure. This land bears a startling resemblance to our land.
