Free speech is a right in most countries, not part of freedom (whihc is a privillage), what has USA got that UK (and other free countries) hasn't got, WE HAVE EVERYTHING YOU DO! We even get free health care on top of that, Americans seem to think that the rest of the countries in the world have no free speech and will get shot for talking anti-government

Yeah maybe you do have it now, but we've always had it from the time America was formed. Our history has always hinged on the freedom of the people. So when we say we're the best for freedom and free speech maybe it's because we have the most time tested experience with it.

Americans learn with experience that there is actual freedom in this land, not only lip service to it! We have also the freedom to learn to spell "Speqch" and "privillage" and say "haven't" got instead of "hasen't" got when speaking of "other free countries" YOU ALSO SEEM TO HAVE THE FREEDOM TO LIE AND FANTASIZE A LOT, BECAUSE YOU DO NOT HAVE ONE TENTH OF WHAT WE GOT" You can not compare a little Island ,with a few people with their noses constantly up to escape the odor of prune juice, with the most powerful nation in the planet. I have been in other nations in the world, and you can talk all the trash you want all day long, most governments can not afford the ammunition even to shoot known criminals. So, before you do nation bashing, get your --sh..-- facts together, O.K?

Most Americans are loyal to and love their country. Also, most of us are not trying to put down other countries. We are sure most people love their countries as much as we love ours, and that is great and the way it should be. I don't want free health care, however, because I want the better quality and choice of healthcare. I also like that the USA offers all drugs available for their citizens new and old, but some countries that have "free health care" don't offer all choices that US citizens have. I know this for a fact as I have recently done research on this very subject. Please let me know where you are from.

For starters, we have better education and can spell the word "speech."

Granted, Health care is part of your citizenship, but if it
came down to the quality of health care per ca-pita, the US is far ahead of any country in the world.

It's safe to say that more people in the the City of Philidelphia receive more high quality CT scans than all of the UK.

I use to work for a UK based firm and the standards put in place for benefits for US employees vs. those in the UK were far more superior, which means that the US places a much higher emphasis on the importance of health benefits for it's employees.

Look at the likes of GM, General Electric, I can go on for days.

The UK is a fun place to chill; but I would never work there!

Freedom of Speech is not a right in most countries. There are 200 - 300 of them in the world, depending on how you define them. The US ranks about 10th for fredom of speech. The Netherlands are #1. I can't find the link.

Your medical care isn't free. Your taxes pay for it. Our taxes are lower and we pay for health care.

You don't have Pamela Anderson, redwood forests or flat, rectangular provinces. We don't have quaint little thatched cottages or butlers.

Freedom without restraint is the final ingredient this u . s . desires now that this is have been given 3 hundred,000,000 citizens. yet as an occasion how loose we particularly are, if I come to a decision to head from Winchester, VA to everywhere, u . s ., i do no longer first could sign up with the close by police, the way one did in Germany when I lived there. Do you think of two gay adult males could walk down a highway in Moscow and not be hammered on? How loose are you in Mainland China? in case you're "in the way" you're basically eradicated. Tiannan sq., the ridiculous 3 River Dam which uprooted hundreds of thousands of folk. that they had basically approximately no say. in this u . s ., freedom could aid you a minimum of time for litigation. i latterly had a query pulled of Y!A! uk/eire wherein I asked them to describe their concept of "white trash." They somewhat confer with us as such rather in many situations. yet my question replaced into yanked. Anti-American bias. So the dude that suggested "freedom is relative" is suitable and could get superb answer. *Edit a million* @Toitoi: The "comedian tale" is your vanity and your man or woman bigotry against people. you're basically doing the anti-American masturbation ingredient. Gee, you're a brilliant guy basically brimming with unique techniques, are not you?. tutor me a rustic whose freedoms did no longer come without cost and on the "price of others." how many people died in WWII scuffling with for freedom? bear in mind, it replaced into you cherished eu colonial-mariners working in cooperation with rather some African princes who had the slaves waiting to be picked up. bear in mind, it replaced into the English, Dutch and Portuguese who never missed a brilliant gamble to flow to Africa and deal in the slave industry because of the fact the Africans made it so worthwhile . So once you wanna sling shyt at usa of america, you psychological poseur-as in case you particularly care approximately absolutely everyone different than your self and your moldy techniques-bear in mind, actual people are taught to sling it back.

What makes you think this ?
Not true...
We are fully aware of the freedoms enjoyed by some others...
Unfortunately, we Americans are constantly having to go to
war to protect the freedoms enjoyed by others at our expense...
