Well... I don't want to exasperate you any further but... but we do have some things called an 'electoral process'.... 'a multicultural social order'... vastly different metropolitan and rural populations... and we don't just violently overthrow our elected officials, as the world's press might love to characterize us.
Yes, those people you describe do exist here... but I suppose those who occupy your equivalent positions of power are picture perfect, and not at all similar. I should envy you.
We are not the same... it's fine to be be proud of that... but don't be vain.
The corruption and social decay we are struggling here with is certainly no stranger to your home turf either.
But I don't think you like it anymore than I do... although evidently you propose that I (or perhaps all Americans) are gleefully acquiescent to this circumstance...
Congratulations on actualizing the perception that 'you have a bead on us.'
Nevertheless, whatever I am willing to "own" is in my mind, not anyone else's.
Many would refuse your characterization through argument... I simply recognize it as yours... and expect that your characterizations adjoin a narrative - a story you believe well enough to slide disdainful words to someone who simply exists in the setting of your narrative. I don't intend to struggle with that unknown and probably preferred outlook.
If you can really attribute this to "a people" instead of individuals, you can do what I can't.
