Oh, I think that Americans use it the right way a time or two. It's actually getting used a lot more these days. Simply because there are just so many of them out there! This actually makes me think of the political parties in the US. Based on their views these days a lot of people would probably be surprised to learn that back in the day it was the Republicans that were against slavery and the Democratic party was for it. Similar to people who should know better going the totally opposite direction.
:D :D
I always find political parties interesting, because they nearly all started to do something right, to improve the system, but they end up being part of the system itself. It is inevitable though, isn't it?
Power is funny that way I guess.
