I'm sick and arguing with ignorant idiots online. Don't tell me to give up and do something else because these people are so dumb... I just can't walk away... Retard 1: Well, obviously America is better than any other country. Me: I'm American but I'm not like "AMERICA is true civilization and people in Egypt live in tents! So America PWNS!!" like some ignorant retards. Retard 2: There's no doubt that America was/is the best country. Maybe not now, but 20 ish years ago, when we had good presidents? Yeah, we were the best. Me: Uh, dude... First, what facts/statistics are you using to judge that America is the best? Retard 2: The fact that ANYONE ANYWHERE can bust their ass and rise up and get rich. Our country is/was the best because the government would leave you to your earnings. Because they didn't try to regulate how you run your business, because they were smart. The fact that you have the freedom to do whatever you wish, so long as it wasn't harming anyone. If you wanted to eat 40 gallons of ice cream, go for it! If you wanted to become a doctor, go for it! If you wanted to print a legitimate, anti-government article, go for it! (as long as it's factual) Where else? Me: So yeah, America is a democratic country along with: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Benin, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Cape Verde, Chile, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Honduras, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Jamaica, Kiribati, Latvia, Lesotha, Lithuania, Malaysia, Mali, Malta, Mexico, Micronesia, Mongolia, Namibia, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway, Palau, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Suriname, Sweden, Thailand, Taiwan, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago, Tuvalu, Ukraine, United Kingdom, Uruguay But that alone is not a basis to say that America is the best country. That is naive and ignorant. Retard 2: Do they have unalienable rights? All of them? Do they have the assurance that their government can't take away some rights? Do they? No. Our Constitution is the greatest thing ever. It grants us rights and limits our government. Also, our economic policy (now leaning towards socialistic) plays a big part. It should be capitalistic. ________________________________________________________ So what do I say??

Honestly, American pride cannot be battled with. I personally take your thoughts on America is not the best. I will say what everyone else has probably told you-- ignore them. Yeah, it's irritable; but what's the point in arguing. Assuming you don't know the persons age, they could be some dumb kid who fell asleep during World History class because they thought it was boring. Is America greater then Austria or Germany? Who have some of the best economies at this moment in time. Honestly, if you really need to vent on the stupidity, share with someone who holds your views or type it all out what you'd say to them.

America seems to be selfish. Who gave America the right to judge, comment, and show concern about other countries government and economy? Also, all the food thrown away in America at home and in restaurants in a year is enough to feed a poor country for a year. The American economy is doing too well either, while several other countries around the world have a booming economy and are developing great business, such as China, Japan, Korea, and Indonesia.

Yes. You can say that we (Portugal at least) have unalienable rights, the first of all is the right to live. There are no death penalty, because ultimately, life is not something that a state and its laws can take. I think that will be enough. If not, say him we also have unalienable right to access to culture, health and education (something that in USA is not quite true if someone do not have money to pay for that). Take care...

In America, the masses are poor, and uneducated compared to the rich ruling class, that governs the media, economy, and politicians. Capitalism is supported by the rich, because they profit from a free market, you don't , you're just the slave that works for the rich master all your insignificant life.

Drop the H bomb, H for Hunger! America is pretty much the only western (here counting US, Canada, Western Europe and Scandinavia) with actual hunger because the social system there is so flawed that 17.3 million people live in house holds where it is common that one or more person can go a day without food because they do not have enough money to buy food for everyone in the household. Ones level of civilization is not just how much freedom you have, but how you treat those worst off in your society. Or you could ask why the rights does not count as long as the government says terrorist...

In USA, more than 34 million people is living under the povery line.¹ ¹ Numbers according to BEEGHLEY, Leonard. (2004). The Structure of Social Stratification in the United States. Boston, MA. Life expectancy rate in Cuba and USA is the same. However, the infant mortality rate in USA is bigger. In Cuba it is 7, in the United States it is 8. ² ² Numbers according to World Health Organization Presidential elections in USA always was a big lie. There are no choices for Americans, there are only two identical political parties running. It's not a real democracy. The real democratic system is the Brazilian one as it is today. The American press (and all media) is a sheep. There is no real freedom of speech. American press hides facts about war, povery in USA, drugs, hunger and violence in USA and more. The jews and the "mafia" controls all media (TV news, movies, press etc). They show things to make American people blind and not make questions about government and economic system. Some American states have the right to kill. There is also torture in American military prisons. USA had racist laws until the 60's. Until today, prejudice is still strong in USA. USA droped two nuclear bombs in Japanese civilian areas. The bombs destroyed completly two Japanese cities. Isn't that terrorism? It is worst than terrorism, it is a crime against humanity! USA governement spends money with weapons, but nothing with food and health. American diplomacy is awful. USA invade other countries against the free will of citizians and against UN. As we can see, USA is the most violent Nation of the world. American TV (and some American movies) are just for retards. It's the country where people don't like to read. American literature is not as rich as the British, French, Russian, Italian, Cuban, Brazilian, Argentine, Peruvian, Portuguese, Spanish, Greek, Arab, Indian, Chinese.... America has Edgar Allan Poe, nothing more. Compare with those countries. Sure, I'm talking about good literature. USA is the country of the junkie food, obeses and poor quality of life. Usually (not always) Americans are ignorant and "blind". They believe in all things the American government tell them to believe and do all things the government tell them to do. Land of freedom? Don't make me laught. Americans have freedom till governement label someone "terrorist". Even at the past, USA never had freedom. Americans think "freedom" is buying everything they want. For that you need money, and not all American have it. Money is not freedom. Freedom is doing and saying everything you want. In USA, only the rich class has that right. US military forces are very weak. Yes, they have good weapons, but trainning and strategies are awful. USA lost Vietnam war. And who free Germany from the Nazis? Actually, it was USSR (UK and USA helped). War in Afghanistan is still running. USA won in Iraq with help of Italy, Canada, Japan, South Korea, England and others (USA was not alone). American movies about war are always lying. Compare USA quality of life with Nations like Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Switzerland... They are much better, USA is far away from their quality of life, health, education and security. If you compare numbers, even Cuba offers more quality of life for its citizians than USA. All cuban is well educated, work (not hard work), eat good food and use good medications when they need. Cuba has one of best health systems of the world. And all Cubans are free to have a religion or do what they want to do. In Cuba, Europe and some South America Nations the heath, culture and education is totally free for all citizians. It means you don't have to pay for a University or a medical emergency. In addition, the quality is better than in USA. Furthermore, tell them to watch an excellent movie called "Sicko" by Michael Moore.
