Canadian’s Version of David Letterman’s Top 10.

Ever wonder what Canadians really think of USA.

 

           This is Canada’s Top Ten List of America’s Stupidity .

           Of course we look like idiots …. because we are.

       

          Number 10) Only in America…could politicians talk about

the greed of the rich at a $35,000.00 a plate campaign fund-raising event.

       

          Number 9) Only in America …could people claim that the

government still discriminates against black Americans when they have a

black President, a black Attorney General and roughly 20% of the federal

workforce is  black while only 14% of the population is black 40+% of all

federal entitlements goes to black Americans – 3X the rate that go to

whites, 5X the rate that go to Hispanics!

       

          Number 8) Only in America…could they have had the two

people most responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner (the head of the

Treasury Department) and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means

Committee), BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.

       

          Number 7) Only in America…can they have terrorists kill

people in the name of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting

that Muslims might be harmed by the backlash.

       

          Number 6) Only in America…would they make people who

want to legally become American  citizens wait for years in their home

countries and pay tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they

discuss letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just

‘magically’ become American citizens.

       

          Number 5) Only in America….could the people who believe

in balancing the budget and sticking by the country’s Constitution be

thought of as “extremists.”

       

          Number 4) Only in America…could you need to present a

driver’s license to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.

       

          Number 3) Only in America…could people demand the

government investigate whether oil companies are gouging the public because

the price of gas went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S.

oil  company (Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making

tennis shoes (Nike).

       

          Number 2) Only in America….could the government collect

more tax dollars from the people than any nation in recorded history, still

spend a Trillion dollars more than it has per year – for total spending of

$7-Million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn’t have nearly enough

money.

       

          And the Number 1) Only in America…could the rich people

- who pay 86% of all income taxes – be accused of not paying their “fair

share” by people who don’t pay any income taxes at all.
