What does everyone really think of the United States?

Question

Hate it like it love it, why? Where do you get the basis of you opinons from?

Answer 1

LOVE the country.
HATE the current Government and its policies.

Answer 2

When I was in high school, the media and certain foreign countries despised Ronald Reagan with the same venom that I see spewed towards George Bush Jr.

Back then, we lived with the very real threat of a hostile USSR with thousands of nuclear weapons and a policy of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD).

The USA was resolute and the bad guys backed down and eventually bought into the system. We are even kind of friendly with the Russians now.

Many people who hated violence and war thought US "belligerence" was going to kill everyone.

They were wrong then as now.

The US feeds the hungry, cures diseases, advances freedom and technology...sometimes to excess, but mostly with better intentions than the naked greed and ignorance of lesser countries.

Nobody is perfect, but I am very glad that the Superpower on Earth is the USA and not anyone else.

I know I would not trust my own country with that responsibility.

I am Canadian

Answer 3

That is a hard question to answer because I like living in the united states but in the same breath there are things in the government and law I don't agree with. We are truly not as free as you think and I believe there needs to be things here in the united states that need to be addressed and our government to help there people before they can go and help others. i feel its a double standered and makes them look terrible. I guess I have had bigger questions about our country sine the war in Iraq and Katrina. There are things I am still trying to process and understand about us as a country.

Answer 4

they'll become an outcast from the rest of the world soon if continue what they r doing, U can't go around and tell every countries what's to do all the time, if U travel abroad once in awhile U will hear nothing good about the US , living in fear and paranoid is not a good way of living, the good old day's over after the 90's

Answer 5

I love this nation. It is the greatest civilization in the history of civilization. Its founding creeds and most basic values are unlike those of any other civilization that has ever existed, and, most likely, ever will, more's the pity. Even though it is on the decline, mostly due to self-absorbed, apathetic, miscreants like you, Midget, er, Gigglet, no, Piglet, uh, whatever the hell your name is. When it comes right down to it, All once-great civilizations that are no longer with us committed suicide, and people like you are the only reason people like the terrorists can ever do any lasting damage.

Go shake hands with Davy Jones.

Answer 6

Land of stability, financial and educational growth. Well there are millions of people who migrate to the U.S. without fame and money in their home country. *(Example0 In the U.S. even janitors and security guards are paid a good sum in our country they are not respected and their income would not be enough to secure their future.

In the U.S.A. if your good you excell your future is patterned in good life. Whereas there are those country that no matter how you tried and double your work. You will stay hand to mouth.

This is my opinion.
