Don't be so absurd, Greenbeanz. All I am saying is that it was an accident and thus no shame on any nation. It is a shame on those who caused the accident and them alone. The transportation system on land, air, and sea is cost effective and efficient. One of the best things about this country in fact and certainly very different to that of the UK which is a fleecing device. This is a country that learns quickly and adjusts accordingly. That doesn't in any way mean I am slighting people who have died needlessly and pointlessly. It's easy to twist a perspective and say that one doesn't care, but it isn't accurate and I question the motives of one who does as much. The captain will go to prison, a minister has resigned, a teacher has commited suicide, but of course none of that will bring back the dead. My point is simply that actions have consequences here and they don't in certain other countries. Would Bush jump off of a mountain? Not in a million years. I respect how they sort things out here. Actions have consequences.
This is a country that does many things very well and I would like it to stay that way and not give a hoot what trolls like CNN is saying. It is a country that largely runs things in the interests of its people which is more than I can say for some countries. It is not perfect and corruption exists as it does anywhere, but on the whole it is agreeable. This was a terrible accident, of course I feel for all those who died, and the least we can do is make sure it never happens again. Heads rollings and people being held to account is a good way to start. We learn from our mistakes, this was a terrible mistake. I reiterate: we learn from our mistakes. That is progress. That in no way means I excuse murder of schoolchildren.![]()
