While America is busy restoring democracy and peace in the middle east, it's own policies are tithering on the edge of autocracy. The patriot act was such an example and now with the US govt's intervention on the Chinese bid to buy a US oil company, they have clearly shown how democracy and capitalism works in today's world. The capitalism that they have preached for free flow of economy is now under fire. It's alright for them to go to another country open multi national corporations. It's even alrigth for them to take over another country in the name of democracy. But when a foreign company wants to buy a business interest in the US, it is not alright. Behold the American Government. Behold their superiority over other mortal human beings and countries.
