If you are a citizen of the United States, and come on this site to do nothing but ***** and whine about what a terrible place it is to live, and how terrible of a country we are, why are you still here?

I don't hate this country, I love this country. There is no better place in the world to be born and to live. I don't believe that crying and moaning about how terrible things are and how evil the present president is accomplish anything. But if you hate living here so much, and you think that the Untied States is such an evil entity, why would you choose to stay?

That's a damn good question! I'll try to give you a damn good answer, however, I am not one of those people. I love this country. I have had the good fortune to travel the world, that's one reason, I believe, the Americans on this site bad mouth this country, because they truly don't know any better.
You are exactly right! They piss and moan and complain about the foreigners coming over here and taking over all the seven-elevens but they don't want to even work there, much less try to buy and run one.
The young people, and some not so young people, on this site remind me of a spoiled child. They have had things handed to them all their lives and have never had to work for anything!
Therefore, they cannot even conceptualize the value of an American dollar, or American freedom, or American Pride, or American Democracy, or the American Dream, or so many of the other things that this great Nation bestows on it's citizens that are uniquely American in nature and origin.
There are a lot of things about this country that may not be a bed of roses, but you don't see people jumping the fence going south do you? You don't see people building rafts and putting out to sea to get away do you?
Even with all it's sham, drudgery, and yes even Ill will, The United States of America Is the greatest country in the world.
God Bless our Troops and God Bless America.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I come onto this site to answer questions.
And along the way, I express my views about what the government or certain elected officials may be doing wrong, so that more people become aware and choose to take part in the political process.

Because we're fixing it, dingbat.
The first step is to point out the problems. Unfortunately, whenever you do this, there's always some dorkus who wants to say, "he's a naysayer" or "he just hates america!" but sorry that won't cut it.
The right to speak out against dumbfkruk morons in positions of power is the ENTIRE IDEA behind the USA.... Free Speech..
Don't like it??
THEN WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE??

because I care to voice my opinion (good or bad) about whats going on! And I dont hate this country, just the MORON (you two have something in common) who seems to be "running" it.
I like to hear that I am not alone in my thinking and that I'm not the only anti-bush person in this place.
Oh.. thanks for the 2 points .. YOU ROCK!
