Agreed, for a country that is meant to be world leading there are not many things it IS leading in.
America is a country designed for the rich, if you are rich you can afford to send your children to private, provelidged schools. If you are rich you can pay for and medial care. If you are rich you can afford to pay for a great retirement package. For the other 99% of the people it will always be a struggle.
In many ways I think of America as a 3rd world country. With too many people seeming to care ONLY for themselves (and their guns). We have shared responsibilities as citizens of a nation. If I need medical attention then other people and companies. through their taxes help pay for it. When my children went to school the cost was paid by myself and by other people through taxes. The roads that I drive on are paid by myself and other people through their taxes. The list goes on and on. Too many Americas seem to think that they have NO responsibility to the rest of the country. That is wrong and is very sad. I know this is NOT the majority of Americans but it does seem to be way too many of them.
