Sorry let me fix that. They are still the most powerful, but not for long at this rate.

They are not supporting the less fortunate because it would be socialism. And socialism is against the American idea. My country has never seen anything like this.

We are least corrupted, we have best education and every child gets fed in schools which are free. Hray Finland! Hray Scandinavia!

Oh yeah and the leading party past 30 years been social democrats.

And look how CCCP are we /joke

So why aren't tax money paying for the food? Why should a child in a somewhat wealthy nation have to go hungry? Don't children have rights in america?

@GmasterRED Really? That's a really stupid comment. If that were true, this video wouldn't exist. Plus it's more like millions of people in the world are starving to death. And Americans are ... people are eating themselves to death.
