since anytime you even mention some of the heinous acts of our government you are labeled as "hating america" and then the "america does no good" comments start pouring in by a select few that appear to be not capable of honest critique of their wonderful government, i have decided to make a thread where we can post all of the GREAT things america has done in her short history.

i am serious, here is your chance folks. document the things you love about the USA and the GREAT things she has done over the centuries.

    The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.
