The United States originated Nazism, Nazi salutes, robotic group-chanting to 
flags, and the modern swastika, as shown in the research of the noted 
historian Dr. Rex Curry.  The bizarre acts in the USA began as early as 1875 
and continued through the creation of the National Socialist German Workers' 
Party (German Nazis or NSGWP). The NSGWP had clear roots in National 
Socialism promoted by socialists in the USA. Amazing graphic images that 
prove the point are at

The USA is still the worst example in the world of bizarre laws that require 
robotic chanting to a national flag in government schools (socialist 
schools) every day for 12 years.
