Not like in the US, where we've used our economic might to:
- Crush organized crime
- Remove the causes of poverty and hopelessness
- Vanquish the teaching of 'Creationism' and other anti-scientific nonsense
- Legalize truth, outlawing medical 'gag' orders
- Turn our auto manufacturing 180°; producing the world's best quality vehicles
- Imprison murderers and fraudsters in *all* tax brackets
USA! USA!
No... wait....
