"I love the English lifestyle, it's not as capitalistic as America. People don't talk about work and money, they talk about interesting things at dinner. I like living here because I don't fit into the bad side of American psychology. The British are much more intelligent and civilized than the Americans."

funny thing is, she's getting all this heat from every single person in America for speaking her mind. wtf? The same people that believe and preech 'freedom of speech'. haha.

Why is CNN, MSNBC, FOX, et. al. devoting time to this non-story? Big fucking deal that Gwynth has an opinion. And yeah, the Brits ARE more civilized than us Yanks..probably has something to do with a few more centuries of baggage at being, you know, a civilization. And isn't this what gee I don't know, de Tocqueville commented on a century or so ago? Why is ythis news?

It's shit like this that really makes me think there really is some sort of covert conspiratorial propaganda arm out there to keep the plebes in check with patriotic rah rah-ism, celebrity gossip and high doses of fatty foods...
