Don't want 2 be and American Idiot

What do we really know about America? Aside from the fact it’s got a huge entertainment industry and it’s supposed to be this great land where all your dreams come true. Is it really all its put up to be? Let me tell you, I thought America was an OK place, because, you know, every place has its problems, but America has the world’s problems ten-times over. Most of those problems the government has caused and, off course, due to a “so-do-we” speaking gentleman that the rest of the world suffers. That aside, the real question I wanna ask is, “Is America actually the famed “land of the free” that it’s supposed to be? Let’s explore that, shall we? America was once said to be a place of good fortune, superior intelligence and populace. But what it has become is apparent to even its ’better-off’ people. Lets take 45% percent of this country’s population. That’s a pretty big figure, right? Well, that’s how many people in the US suffer from Obesity. These high-powered, career obsessed people lead unhealthy lifestyles, not only due to the pollution but to the fact that every 9 km there is Mickey D’s (a.k.a. McDonalds). Not a clinic, not a grocery store, not a police station, not even a garage. A McDonalds. To cut them some slack, there are thousands of other fast food places all over America. Besides the influence of advertising on these consumers, it is more expensive to make a meal at home then to order. And here’s something to think about, all you McDonald’s Fans out there, a majority of the ozone destruction over America is due to the fact that McDonald’s destroys thousands of acres of forestry, to create pastures for their many cows (not the ones that created McDonalds). Guess what? You know those cows? They are killed to create those Happy Meals that you love so much. (No offence, but after I found that out, I didn’t feel so Happy). You think South Africa’s crime is so bad? Well guess what. There are more privately owned handguns in America than anywhere else in the world. “ What the hell, let’s bomb ‘em anyways!” this quote from the esteemed President Bush diminishes America’s already tattered reputation even further. The famous “So do we” speech sent thousands of Iraqi's to their deaths. So in conclusion America “land of the idiots”
