What makes the Unites States the greatest country in the world?, you ask?

America is NOT the greatest country in the world!Period! I have often (lately) ponder, what makes the US the greatest? The above scene comes to mind, and, seriously though there's more to add to the disgraces and shortcomings. For instance, there's too many people living in poverty and below poverty, homeless, illiterate, uneducated, ill, depressed and desperate through no fault of their own. The government, past and present gets  focused on spending billions or trillions of money policing the world and squandering in  military efforts. Pharma companies are only focused in amassing wealth to compete with each other, their victims, the  ill people who needs the drugs to survive are the ones that ironically sustain them. Its dog eats dog; Donna Brazile makes new revelations about DNC and Hillary, but  what's so new about it really? We have a fake President who doesn't have the slightest idea on how to lead a country. A President who is more interested in being praised on his ability to tweet. We have a Congress that can't get its head out of his own asshole, heck they  haven't even figured out how to think for themselves, they're lead by people who are not in government positions but who  have plenty of money to move interests for their own agendas. God!, I can go on and on and on and on, but where does it end? I refuse to acquiesce to the law of the land. I cannot define my ideals by siding with a political party, I'm ashamed to admit that since 1987 I have always surrendered my vote to the Dems. Neither label serve the ordinary peoples idealistic morals and convictions, in my view. I don't mean to be cynical but I more and more resolutely  feel open to apathy. Republican, Democratic or Independent are not about the well-being and welfare of the people they intend to govern, the people who elect them, but rather about oppressing the minorities, which oddly enough are the ones that need to be educated about  how we let those in the most powerful positions in conjunction with the media, brainwash us into thinking that the "other" party is the one for us.
So if you are still  asking, Why is America the greatest country in the world? I don't know what the fuck you're talking about!

United States ranks 7th place in literacy, 27th in math, 19th in Science, 26th in life expectancy, 170 in infant mortality.
