Or more power to it/us.
Despite all the flaws one may find in this country we are still the best
there is.
One doesnt have to live under the burden of the opinion of others.
People are free to define and redefine their lives here, sadly too many
Americans fail to take advantage of that opportunity.
>From a personal stand point I find it humorous when people mistake my
wild eyed enthusiasm for naivetey. I had one particular instance when
someone told me the only reason I'm not troubled by the direction this
country is taking is because my family comes from a country where we
were far worse off. If it were true (which she was wrong about anyway)
I still bring personal experience from a country which at a time was the
worst regime to live in.
The only mistakes I ever made involved me giving a $hit about opinions
others, who never held me in any high regard anyway, had of me.
