And they say the U.S. is a dictatorship:

The term dictatorship has been thrown around allot lately in regards to the President and his attempts to protect our nation.

Today I came across an article on MSNBC that helps put in perspective what it’s like to live in a country with limited freedom and lack of justice for the average person. In a country where you can sue a Fortune 500 company for spilling hot coffee on yourself while driving, it’s easy to exaggerate about policies that we find obtrusive.

The article is about Russia and the sentencing of a railway worker to four years in a labor colony for a car accident that killed a high ranking Russian politician, besides the fact that the politician’s car was speeding and slammed into the back of the Toyota the Russian railway worker was driving while he was slowing to make a turn with his directional on.
