Edit: wow, my bad. HN really loves low effort nationalistic slurs as entire comments now.
What's the slur here? American? Mind?
I'm American, and I wasn't offended. Because it's true, we actually can't comprehend this because we are the poster child of government via huge corporations. We literally don't know what it's like to have a functioning and trustworthy government handling these things, it's completely foreign to us.
