watching Britain's Americanization has been horrifying
and funny, because you get a lot of American-isms introduced into the language because of TV/internet. It's also occurring all over the Angloid countries, especially countries like Australia and NZ. I guess the main downside is the awful politics has become more awful because they've imported the "culture war" nonsense.
Privatisation of water treatment has done wonders to help England on the way to not having clean drinking water. The old infrastructure they’ve been coasting on is starting to fall apart now. Love all that raw sewage straight into water systems.
But at least some people made money, and isn’t that what it is all about after all?
