Additionally, the USA people only need to post this when dealing with issues of Foreign affairs.

People in the USA that are commenting on USA issues would simply need to do a similar version:

State Of Birth:
States Lived In:
How old are you:
Political Agenda:
Net Worth:

The USA is similar to the EU and most other places, in that if you were born and raised in California, and visited Florida on vacation for a week, vegas for a convention, but otherwise have been surrounded by "California is where it is at" your opinions would be weighted as such.

The reason for this post is it grows tiring listened to people who are still living with Mommy and Daddy or just got their first apartment etc etc trying to decypher how the world functions. Everything is a simple fix when your world view is from the perspective of looking up from the bong, and the utopian view they feel is the answer.

You can not take anyone's opinion with any weight until you know where they are coming from, experiences, and wisdom.
