Reader comment on item: Hating America's Success

People who curse America are a bunch of envious, ignorant people. Americans are aware that America's power and wealth (both well-deserved through sheer hard work throughout the past 200 years) provokes the wrath of malign, wicked persons, mainly the FRENCH. Despite that, America HELPS even its foes(i.e.Marshall Plan)...

The very concept of Democracy today only exists thanks to America's herculean efforts during WWII, a time that many people had lost their hope in the future. If it weren't for America, France would be a German 'land' today, as would Britain,too.

I am a Brazilian citizen who really admires America,100% sure that she's a Godsent tool on Earth to defend all things each civilized human being should stand for.

If I were an American Senator or congressman, I'd like to pass a law prohibiting the government from helping France again,as America did in 1917/1918 ,WWII and Vietnam (yes,some people really don't have a clue that France was there,too BEFORE America...).

God Bless America!! (I'm sure He did, does and will do forever, for it'll be well-deserved).
