As a Brit, I am always surprised by the number of flags I see in the USA, it seems that the whole country is so insecure it needs to be constantly reminding itself who it is

no, the country is so insecure it needs omnipresence of flags to function as anti-intellectual shields to protect itself from the risk of accidental introspection.

I don't know. Maybe the rest of you had bad experiences. I think the United States has been a net positive for the world at least through the Cold War, although it does seem we've lost are way. We wasted our prosperity on misguided wars and self-defeating charity.

Na, wars are always worth it. We wasted our prosperity on pandering to your religious shit - and now here we are. The christian telling us about the problem of charity. We know.....we know.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

What self-defeating charity are you referring to?
Why is it so?

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Well, that would be a waste.
Why is it so?
