13. ...
:eyes:

It is not the fault of the Indian people that American companies decide to make more profit by moving the labor to Asia. The Indians barely make enough money as it is. They get ripped off as well.

10. Let me let you in on a little secret.
Patriotism is no virtue. It is only the irrational belief that ones country is by nature superior to other countries.

22. I'm from North America, so absolutely
But country-wise I was born and spent most of my life in the US, but now that I've been living in Canada the last 8 years I've pretty much "gone native".

I love Canada like a crushing schoolgirl, and there's no place else I'd rather live.
