Is America the greatest country

[God of Mr. Hanky]

Having the biggest and baddest weapons of war does not greatness make. That's all the US ever had, it's only in recent decades that its own self-infatuation has started to crack.

On the other hand, at least none of our rulers who actually have a say in making our laws enjoy lifetime job security. Sometimes I'm not sure whether that wouldn't be worse, and would embrace it with the stipulation that their lives be subject to routine referendum.
