I wanted to ask this question to Americans, do you think it is ok for people who don’t have a stake in USA future to discuss USA events and politics?

I personally think it should be encouraged, but I had met a very small minority of people who think it’s not ok.

What do you think?

      I would never criticize the entire voting population or say something like “I don’t know why Americans allow X to happen”. My criticisms are specific and targeted towards certain groups of people who are working against our interests.

          I don’t really mind the idea of Republicans. Their execution is the problem. If they really were focused on small government, national defense, low taxes, the second amendment and pro-life, I could understand it (though I am decidedly pro-choice). It’s the disingenuous nature of it all that gets me.

          I also don’t really like the Democratic party. They tend to make big promises that never fully materialize.
