Au contraire!

You confuse the US's individual "pursuit of happiness" with greed. Indeed we generally have the happiest masses for the past 50 years - and for good reason.

You still see out of socialist filters which tell you that the masses can be served by addressing them collectively rather than individually.

In the USA where needs, wants and lifestyle are addressed by the individual you see the greatest happiness - but also examples of greed, the most lavish ostentation, etcetera.

The ROW governments give lip service to the masses, buit always as a collective and never as an individual. That's failed ideology.

Healthcare, prosperity and wants and needs are NOT best addressed via the collective approach. Your complaints about the US are the result of media focus which lets one look at the lifestyles of less than 1% of America and damn America as selfish because of these 1%!

America's Constitution and Declaration declare our concern for man as an individual - look at ANY nation's constitution around the world and find a better one!

The ROW still doesn't get it. Partly due to failure of education and success of indoctrination, some due to repressive regimes which do not value the individual whatsoever. And when you gather these nations at the UN, and elevate them as equal forms of government, and let them pull down the US as some sort of tyrant - and indoctrinate large uneducated parts of the world - one does a disservice to the individual, human rights and the welfare of all mankind!

Here's one for you McFly....imagine a world with NO America.

I can.

And that's why I am a very loud proponent.
