that's not a nation, just 4 corporations in a trench coat.
Okay but which nation isn't?
It depends. America is really big, so it needs more corporations to fill a coat.
The Uk is just 1.5 corporations in a trench coat
And a royal family.
You seen their estates? They're the half corporation
France. Motherfuckers will go on strike at the drop of a hat. I wish, at least in Canada, we had the same kind of guts. Quebec is the closest but not nearly close enough.
Ah, yes, strike, the national sport of France.
I love the French for being the most outspoken people among the European countries and having a ton of good initiatives going on. But don't idolize them, most of their population is just as braindead and complacent as the rest of us Europeans, and their general unwillingness to speak English like most other Europeans hinders the spreading of their radical initiatives in the rest of Europe. (Sorry for the blatant generalizing. Not every French, not every European, .....)
Cuba?
