For over 230 years America has been the inspiration for freedom loving people across the globe. All the things he said at the end are why America is the greatest country in the world. Even though America has become corrupted by TPTB, so has every other country. The biggest difference is that Americans recognize this trend and are fighting like hell against it, unlike other nations who have willfully accepted tyranny! If any country has a chance at defeating the twisted tyrants in this world it is most certainly America! Americans don’t back down and we don’t give up.

But we were the First ones to DEMAND IT.
We didn't demand Freedom because our people were starving..
We demanded Freedom for the sake of Freedom....
I think that means something even all these years after the 1770's

Well, that's the issue, isn't it?
People seem to think that it's some sort of competition, that someone has to be the winner.
In reality, we're all just trying to do the best we can with what we have.
Until this mindset is gone, we're all losers.

My family came from south and central america. And ended up living comfortably. It's your opinion that it's not the greatest country in the world. But I will say it's alot better than many other countries.

Yea, I wish we would have kept our mouths shut now we have to hear Aussies spew hate all the time...sucks for ATS
An aggressive, fight provoking response as I was expecting. I was in no way spreading hate, think before you speak because you just come off as arrogant, rude and extremely defensive. What I said is very true, sadly a large portion of the Americans I have conversed with are very culturally unaware and what they think is patriotism is actually arrogance, and they say America is the greatest country like it's an established fact. It's not, it's an opinion.
For the record, I do not think the country I live in is the greatest country in the world, so stop the cheap attack attempts.
