    One thing I think most people can agree makes America great: Our national park system. We have some absolutely beautiful, expansive and unique national parks. Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon are probably the most well-known but they’re only two of 63 total that we have.

    Personally, I think natural wonders are better than man-made ones, and you can say what you want about America, but I don’t know anyone who’s gone to see the Grand Canyon (for example) and hasn’t been just utterly amazed by it.

    We’re still the most wealthy country per capita in the world. We just distribute that wealth in the most moronic method imaginable.

      Yeah, that’s just money divided by population, it says absolutely nothing on the average citizen’s wealth.

      Most wealthy per capita, yet seems like the majority of people have 0 savings and live paycheck to paycheck.
