Yes the only problem is how far to the other extreme elections can take those countries. From right win to far far left. Though can it be really any worse from here?

That's a good point. I've noticed how the politics in other countries swing wildly from one election to another. Of course, it kind of does the same thing here, but we both know that behind the scenes in the US, the same people pull the strings no matter who is in office.

Then I see things like what has happened in Argentina, and I think, wow, let's move there! But the next election could see all the old crooks get back into power and screw things up again. So then I think, what's the use in moving? We're pretty much screwed no matter where we live anymore.
