Sure, you have bragging rights, but do you have anything that the rest of the industrialized world doesn't have?

Not very much really. I could enjoy more or less all the same economic and political freedoms and civil liberties I have now in New Zealand, Canada, Ireland, Great Britain, or Australia.

Superpower: a powerful and influential country, with an excellent economy. Superpower countries are dominating and, in the case of the U.S., has a positive affect on the world. Possession of nuclear weapons are also a requirement.
It has given us the highest standard of living in the world. I'm considered lower middle class, but my household has two newer cars, three computers, five televisions, a fully stocked newer refrigerator, stove, microwave, dishwasher, and washer & dryer.
My home is 2,000 square feet with an attached garage, skylights, split level, vaulted ceiling, big yard, fenced back yard.
We take two vacations per year, next year it'll be a cruise to Tahiti.
don't forget, LOWER MIDDLE CLASS.

What does the US have that the rest of the developed world doesn't?
Blame. The US is blamed for everything that is wrong in the world. From war in the Middle East to Global Warming, it's all the fault of the world's 'lone superpower.'
