Coming to the U.S. I thought I'd be getting away from "communism" - and I have gotten away from some of the worst aspects, but I'm finding out that in going to the United States I have escaped BACK into a Police State. You can judge the pervasiveness of a Police State by the willingness of the citizens to further the police state by informing on each other, etc. The citizens of the United States are eager to turn each other in to the authorities for even imagined infractions. The Police are eager to oblige and follow up. I fear I'm now in a country that is eagerly becoming a police state. I'm actually international and would have no trouble going elsewhere and obtaining good employment (I'm a physician). I'm seriously considering that. It seems dangerous to live in America. I don't think I want my son growing up here. It would be easy to get swept up into the American legal web by accident. Americans are not kind to each other. America is a scary society - there is too much competition - the people do not seem to like each other. They like to damage each other.
