Sure, the US is a rather deficient country, but really, others are not much better, if at all. Most countries have skeletons in the closet. (Just think of Britain or France or Belgium and the mess they created in Africa.) And those that don't are usually simply too small to have any negative impact, not too decent or moral.

you jump all over the place on why you hate America, but don't strongly support any of the reasons you hate the US. As I read the rant, I felt it was coming from someone with a simplistic hate...not really understanding any issue. I'm not saying your hate is wrongly founded, just that you do not clearly state or support anything well.
Your second comment is right on the money. But when your country is as powerful as ours you have to expect a lot of criticism of that sort. it's often illogical criticism but it is a reaction to a powerful nation's status. It has pretty much happened throughout history.
Of course it's always been that way. Everybody wants to attack the big dog. Nobody cares when you're small potatoes.
It even happens on the individual level. Try and see the reaction in people when you start making a lot of money and it shows in your increased standard of living.

That is not what I said, you changed the sequence of words.
Oh, well that's completely different. My apologies.
