What do I love about my country, the United States?
1. We're strong militarily and economically.
2. Our excellent colleges and universities
3. Our low crime rate (away from major cities.)
4. We can speak our minds in the press or other public forums with little or no fear of government reprehension.
5. We have 50 diverse, beautiful states.
6. Two of our states were nations before joining us: Texas, Hawaii.
7. We have great diversity in cultures, subcultures, races, ethnicities, nationalities, walks of life that can not compare with the rest of the world.
8. Our initiative to crusade for struggling peoples around the world. In Iraq and Afghanistan, we're not only seeking to stabilize those two countries and build democracies, we've freed millions of oppressed people living in fear.
9. Our modern, easily-accessible (and not nationalized) healthcare.
What's not so great:
1. Most of our citizens are rude jerks.
2. Our cities have high crime rates.
3. Our public schools suck.
