" Unfortunantly the beginning statement sounds like they would prefer the U.S. to include more communist ideals into American society. Capitalism goes hand in hand with democracy. By influencing people to not consume they are basically proposing communist ideals. Communism does not support capitalism nor consumers. The U.S. is the most powerful country in the word because it is a democracy."

Dear citizen of U.S.
Ripping off people is never democratic. Consuming is an everyday habit, but don't you think people consume TOO MUCH? Buying stuff does not make people happy. It only creates more garbage to this planet. Don't you think it is time to think from a global point of view? U.S. is not the center of this universe. Capitalism causes an undemocratic situation for those who have no money to consume. What do you think about that? Do you know that some thoughts that come out of your head could be actually YOUR OWN? (And please don't tell me I should learn to spell or something -I live in a foreign country and The Mighty Russia is our neighbour!)
Love, Milla
