Many Euro\u00adpeans may won\u00adder how it came about that, despi\u00adte the well-known lack of cha\u00adrac\u00adter, full-blown igno\u00adrance, and moral depra\u00advi\u00adty of can\u00addi\u00adda\u00adte Donald J.

In order to cor\u00adrect\u00adly assess the voting decis\u00adi\u00adon, it is neces\u00adsa\u00adry to under\u00adstand the pre\u00advai\u00adling men\u00adta\u00adli\u00adty of the majo\u00adri\u00adty of the US<\/span> population:<\/p>\n

Ame\u00adri\u00adcans are indi\u00advi\u00addua\u00adlists,
their mot\u00adto is \"Every man for himself!\"<\/center><\/blockquote>\n

The\u00adr\u00ade\u00adfo\u00adre, com\u00admu\u00adni\u00adty pro\u00adjects are only co-finan\u00adced with reluc\u00adtance, becau\u00adse tho\u00adse who do not direct\u00adly bene\u00adfit from the\u00adse pro\u00adjects do not want to pay for them.<\/p>\n

This is how you can under\u00adstand what the situa\u00adti\u00adon in the coun\u00adtry looks like
[no cla\u00adim to completeness!]:<\/p>\n

  • Roads with huge pot\u00adho\u00adles and in poor con\u00addi\u00adti\u00adon, which also applies to highways;<\/li>\n
  • Poor or even insuf\u00adfi\u00adci\u00adent local public transport;<\/li>\n
  • Land\u00adscape, spa\u00adti\u00adal, and urban plan\u00adning enti\u00adre\u00adly geared towards indi\u00advi\u00addu\u00adal trans\u00adport - and where<\/li>\n
  • Approa\u00adches to pro\u00advi\u00adding car-inde\u00adpen\u00addent trans\u00adport exist, this is inef\u00adfec\u00adti\u00adve becau\u00adse it only achie\u00adves lei\u00adsu\u00adre oppor\u00adtu\u00adni\u00adties, not sup\u00adp\u00adly activities;<\/li>\n
  • Rail trans\u00adport for the rapid trans\u00adport of goods - the trans\u00adport of peo\u00adp\u00adle is a com\u00adpul\u00adso\u00adry exer\u00adcise, whe\u00adther for bet\u00adter or for worse. which, howe\u00adver, is then paid for by users as a luxu\u00adry, even though it falls short of medio\u00adcri\u00adty by Euro\u00adpean standards;<\/li>\n
  • The lack of uni\u00adver\u00adsal health insu\u00adrance and its repla\u00adce\u00adment by *for-pro\u00adfit* insu\u00adrance sche\u00admes who\u00adse pri\u00adma\u00adry goal is to gene\u00adra\u00adte divi\u00addends for shareholders;<\/li>\n
  • Child\u00adca\u00adre at exor\u00adbi\u00adtant pri\u00adces that almost com\u00adple\u00adte\u00adly skim off the second salary;<\/li>\n
  • Elder\u00adly care that the majo\u00adri\u00adty of the affec\u00adted age group can\u00adnot afford;<\/li>\n
  • A pen\u00adsi\u00adon system that mere\u00adly ensu\u00adres that tho\u00adse entit\u00adled to it do not die of hunger.<\/li>\n

    Poli\u00adti\u00adci\u00adans' demands to chan\u00adge the\u00adse con\u00addi\u00adti\u00adons and achie\u00adve an impro\u00adve\u00adment in the qua\u00adli\u00adty of life through coll\u00adec\u00adti\u00adve action and, abo\u00adve all, payment are dis\u00adcredi\u00adted with \"SOCIALISM<\/span>!\", a batt\u00adle cry pri\u00adma\u00adri\u00adly of the wealt\u00adhy, who crea\u00adte their *own world* in iso\u00adla\u00adted, fen\u00adced-in ghet\u00adtos and act as if the wel\u00adfa\u00adre of their fel\u00adlow citi\u00adzens is none of their business. <\/p>\n

    While in this coun\u00adtry [Ger\u00adma\u00adny] struc\u00adtures that ser\u00adve the public and are at a com\u00adpa\u00adra\u00adb\u00adly high level are lamen\u00adted due to the igno\u00adrance of the com\u00adplai\u00adners and the etern\u00adal\u00adly dis\u00adsa\u00adtis\u00adfied, in the USA<\/span> even the exclu\u00added lower class does not even con\u00adsider that it might be appro\u00adpria\u00adte to ensu\u00adre the con\u00addi\u00adti\u00adons of life (and sur\u00advi\u00adval!) by invol\u00adving ever\u00adyo\u00adne, for all<\/em>.
    \nWith the batt\u00adle cry SOCIALISM<\/span>, all attempts to gene\u00adra\u00adli\u00adze coll\u00adec\u00adti\u00advist thin\u00adking to impro\u00adve living con\u00addi\u00adti\u00adons for all are nip\u00adped in the bud.<\/em>

      The rea\u00adson the fa\u00e7a\u00adde of *Ame\u00adri\u00adcan excep\u00adtio\u00adna\u00adlism* is still belie\u00adved is sim\u00adply due to the lack of know\u00adledge the [US<\/span>] popu\u00adla\u00adti\u00adon has of other count\u00adries and living con\u00addi\u00adti\u00adons around the world. The *eli\u00adtes* are awa\u00adre of this, but have a strong inte\u00adrest in kee\u00adping it that way, becau\u00adse then their posi\u00adti\u00adon will not be shaken. The upper midd\u00adle class \u2013 often sur\u00adpri\u00adsin\u00adgly well-infor\u00admed about the dif\u00adfe\u00adren\u00adces bet\u00adween opi\u00adni\u00adon and fac\u00adtu\u00adal know\u00adledge \u2013 stri\u00adves for the top and the\u00adr\u00ade\u00adfo\u00adre belie\u00adves that gene\u00adral enligh\u00adten\u00adment only hin\u00adders their own aspirations.
    \nSo, ulti\u00adm\u00adate\u00adly, we are left with a defi\u00adci\u00adent public school system, and tho\u00adse with enough money can fun\u00adnel their off\u00adspring \u2013 even tho\u00adse who are unsui\u00adta\u00adble becau\u00adse they lack intellec\u00adtu\u00adal skills \u2013 through *\u00e9li\u00adte*(!) insti\u00adtu\u00adti\u00adons and build them up as luminaries.<\/p>\n

    See Donald J. Trump, dumb as a stump,
    but with an \u00e9li\u00adte uni\u00adver\u00adsi\u00adty bachelor's degree!\u00b9<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \nIn many places, Euro\u00adpe is the coun\u00adter-evi\u00addence to the US<\/span> theo\u00adry that acting for a fic\u00adti\u00adtious natio\u00adnal coll\u00adec\u00adti\u00adve by poli\u00adti\u00adci\u00adans and in the poli\u00adti\u00adcal sphe\u00adre, i.e., ori\u00aden\u00adting the sta\u00adte toward the com\u00admon good rather than pro\u00admo\u00adting the unbrid\u00adled self-inte\u00adrest of citi\u00adzens, is equi\u00adva\u00adlent to     socia\u00adlism<\/a> or even com\u00admu\u00adnism<\/a>.
