Degrees of Freedom

are you sure about united states? try taking a picture of a building in NY

You don't get out much do you?

Four world powers and their degree of freedom. Very nicely depicted!

It really depends on what you count as freedom. If your on about political then I disagree with India and the US, if your talking about economic then India's more or less ok.
The US really isnt free, go somewere else like Iceland if you want freedom. Theyve had a parliment much longer than most of the rest of the western world. It's a good country. The United States of a Merry Cow is not.

...but USA > You

Its nice to see angry foreigners jealous over America's Freedom and opportunity (tho to be honest we're losing our freedom with every bill passed these days', and their isn't much opportunity in an economy like ours). I still think I'd prefer America's corrupt capitalist government to China's near totalitarian rule. Our economy may be failing for all the world to see but I'm one of America's Poor; I have tv's, computers, video games, a fridge full of food and a closet full clothes and money left over to buy weed. I wouldn't want to be the poor of those countries.

The picture doesnt talk about it depicting political or economic freedom.

it is just a picture and it could be anything. it could be that the other countries cant wait to get a piece of US's opportunities or they are after the US for upsetting the peace in this world. everyone has their POV.

charchaa means discussion in Hindi.

you people are far too negative and stressfull.

nice. but how can you say that in the US you have one of the highest degrees of freedom? Freedom to do what? to go attack midwestern countries and say "freedom has a price" WTF? or the freedom to make a choice of not to? oh wait a minute, even though most people in the US protest, the govt. still goes on. How is that freedom? most americans who've never been outside the US believe that, but change their minds when they step out and see people outside "their bubble" live equally free.

In the US there is this stupid notion that "the world outside" is unsafe and everybody is out to kill you or mug you or something like that. When the truth is these places are much safer than so many downtowns. Yes, they are, i'm not making shit up, although i'm not quoting any sources so yeah you're free to stay in your "bubble" and believe what you may.

also i can imagine why they have that belief. when i was there people have actually asked me if i went to school on an elephant! and one great man was shocked to know India has nuclear weapons. so shocked he spit his drink out. and no the world doesn't want to kill you, its only you who think that they do! and it is actually that thought that pisses people off!

the difference is in asian countries the "politics" and "corruption" happens in the lower and middle layers of hierarchy while in the US it takes place in the upper echelons. so people sitting at the bottom feel everything is fine.

you think before you speak so as not to offend anyone from any race, religion and what not. you teach your kids to be tolerant of others blah blah blah.
we talk (and yes offend each other) but we talk not coz we are barbarians, coz we have the freedom too. so seriously, walk out of your bubble and see the world, its the same everyFUCKINGwhere! :-)

btw someone talk about the patriot act(in the US). how the fuck is that freedom????!!!!

out govt. isn't spying on us! hahahahahahahahaaaaa................. so much for your freedom :P
