You Can Take the Apple Pie and Baseball, but Leave the Opera

What's Wrong With America?

Let's take a case study of the MAJOR differences between the United States of America and European countries.

America's Got Talent.

Winner: A Ventriloquist

Britain's Got Talent.

Winner: Opera Singer

What's wrong with this picture? We Americans seem content with a individual who is famous for sticking his hand up a plastic doll and pretending that it can talk to him. Europe on the other hand has true artists who can inspire the soul and bring art into the world. Why can the public not see that we are being short changed for cheap entertainment, when there is real and inspiring art just across the ocean!

If you can't find me, I am over there.
