And those are some high points. You can also add in the practices of slavery, genocide, civil war and a list of other things we now chide other countries for. Anyone whose view of America is through rose tinted glasses as a perfect, idealistic, utopic place has little knowledge of history. The fact is we would be the worst country in the world if it wasn't for all the others. What remains is I am proud of, still love living in, and am happy to be born in America without having to rely on historic ignorance to get to that point.
