In Italy everyone is furbo and lies to get ahead. People rely on honesty in the US, I remember reading a story where an Italian man complained about his room and he got another one, instantly. He was astonished, and said it would never work in Italy since everyone would lie about it.
They get seized at worst, you get a reship. Nobody cares about it as long as you aren't getting 50+ for resale.

>When you claim NATO has been good for the world aren't you forgetting about the political meddling, money showering and laundering, secret illegal perations, and puppet government instantiated throughout the subjugated countries in order to steal control from Russian control during cold war?
No. I never said NATO was perfect. I said it's good because it caused lasting peace and prevented WW3.
It would be stupid for me to say America doesn't meddle. But what was the other outcome? If NATO didn't exist what would the world be like?
Some things had a horrible magnificence like when the US bombed Los Alamo's US soldiers and the men in a documentary talked about how beautiful it was, or the terrifying effect of white phosphorus.
After writing this, I think I liked the idea of the power and leanness of the military ( wanted their gear because milspec means hardy), but also thought they had the coolest toys to play with.
I do find it hilarious that the Porsche cayanne is the same as the Volkswagen version but worst interior.
Unrelated but when I started drinking kombucha my stutter went away. Try probiotics!
