Been seeing a lot about how the government passes shitty laws, lot of mass shootings and expensive asf health care. I come from a developing nation and we were always told how America is great and whatnot. Are all states is America bad ?

    This user seems to think the US superior to all other countries

    I said no such thing.

      Short memory, you said:

      The USA, for all its faults, remains the standard against which other countries measure themselves (and find themselves lacking).

        How to interpret that sentence:

        1. The USA has its faults
        2. Other countries compare themselves to the USA
        3. THEY find THEMSELVES lacking

        How not to interpret that sentence:

        1. The USA is actually superior.
