Air New Zealand thinks THIS is an economy seat? (with video)

Just about EVERY other civilized nation these days has better airplanes than the United States. It is just one example of how America is turning into a third world country. Actually more like a cross between Mexico and Soviet Russia.

Hey MasterShake, it's the current state of the freemarket, capitalist economy. Something's gone horribly wrong with it. Competition used to be a good thing for customers. There used to a corrolation between great products and services and success in the market. Lately it's become about how to make everything so cheap and crappy with customers who have no options for betterment with any other sellers, that crap is all that's left to us.

JD - New Zealand also has a freemarket capitalist economy. The problem is that the United States started to allow corporations to get so big that they are virtually monopolies. This is the legacy of Reagan if you study the actual history. Not to mention 20 years of the Bush dynasty (8 years of old man Bush as VP for Reagan, then 4 years of him as President, and another 8 years of his halfwit son as President). Look at what happened to America during that period. You went from being the leader of the world's economy, to being one step away from a bankrupt imperial police state, with so many enemies now that you spend a fortune now on security measures that weren't necessary before this era.
