    I'm American at heart

    I'm American at heart. I don't like UK anymore. We've become a rubbish part of a socialist/wannabe commie EU. Justice down the drain, morality become relative (dilution of Biblical teaching much to blame) etc. taxes too high, property too expensive, people too unfriendly it goes on and on. And weather seems to be getting worse too.

    Is this a 'trolling for beginners' tutorial?

    You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

      no I'm serious, UK has become a dump. Some of us have been awake to witness this decline. Read Peter hitchens sometime and it will all start to make sense.

        As someone who has a LOT of contact with Americans and speak to them everyday - I have no wish to become one!

        I too hate what England (and each of the other countries in the UK equally) has become. I am technically based abroad, but I spend far too much of my time in the UK because of personal reasons. However, I have never considered not being English/British, and certainly not American!
        How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

          Americans are not stupid, as the BBC and Guardian readers would have us think.

                    I've worked there a lot over the years and they are always completely astonished that you don't want to be an American too.
