(11) I found an article on the Pravda web site that perfectly describes life in these United States. I did not write it, but am reprinting it here for your enjoyment. I have reformatted it to make it easier to read:
"If a woman puts a cup of hot coffee on the car seat between her legs when she is driving and talking on mobile phone at the same time, and the coffee gets spilt and burns her thighs, she blames the restaurant for this.
"If your son commits suicide, you blame rock-''-roll or his favorite musician.
"If you smoke 3 packs of cigarettes a day for 40 years and finally die of lung cancer, your family accuses the tobacco company.
"If your daughter gets pregnant from the captain of the school football team, you blame school for bad sexual education.
"If your neighbor crashed the car onto the tree when he was drunk and was driving home - the barman is guilty.
"If your relative got AIDS when he injected drugs to himself with the dirty syringe - the government is guilty as it did not provide him with the sterile syringe.
"If your grandchildren are bullies - television is guilty.
"If some psycho killed your friend - the weapons producer is guilty.
"If some other psycho breaks in the airplane cabin and tries to kill the pilot when the plane is high in the sky, and the passengers kill him instead, the mother of the killed guy accuses the air company.
"I have lived long enough to understand what the world is about. If I die when sitting at this computer, I want you to accuse Bill Gates."
