you are still living in the 90sAll this euro national pride is touching & i can relate but for any european to post the shit thats been posted here is silly & ungratefull.
The whole of europe owe's debts to the united states that will never be repaid,mainly because we never asked,before all the euro kiddies go getting all smug do some history research,no matter what euro country your from if it wasnt for the greedy fucks in the usa spoon feeding the whole of europe for 80 years every last one of your parents woulda called each other " comrade " and woulda been sucking Joseph Stalin's cock for a crust of bread,and thats only after Hitler got done tattoing swasticas on your grandmothers asses,the usa & its generous people helped every last one of your countries go from a life of sheep & goat hearding existance farmers to what you are today,your welcome.
Im not sure which european country you cats are from but this whole anti usa attidue the younger generations are spewing forth was paid for with your forefathers groveling,an entire group of countries who's very existance is built on american generousity shouldnt be throwing stones across the pond.
Anyhow on topic of power.
You guys sure act superior when it comes to power as well as politics,when the decision was made in the usa of what kind of power should supply the masses many things were taken into consideration,cost vs user saftey were the issues,user saftey was what drove the usa to go with lower voltages at much higher costs.
In the usa we could have a 5 year old child stick a fork in a light socket or wall unit,every last protection circuit we use could fail & the chances are that the child will walk away having learned a lesson,can you say that,i dont think so.
Before you guys get all smug you need to realize exactly why we use the system we do & realize that we have the lowest number of in home electrocution deaths in the world beacuse of the system we use.
in the uk we could have a 5 year old child stick a fork in a 240v 45 amp power socket and it will trip faster than the kid can cry mummy i felt a tingle in my hand.
thats progress.
a 50 amp circuit will kill an adult stone dead.
