The entire world has a distaste for America, after all, we are always the source of their economic problems... and we like to get involved in everything and make it worse O.o

America is a superpower whose power is unbalanced in the world today. However, America will not die like Rome, but simply fade like Great Britain. New powers are emerging China, India, The European Union, and possibly Russia or Japan. Now on the world stage there could be four or five great world powers and the world like there were prior to World War II. America will always be here, but it will have to compete with these new markets. China is the fast grower, but India will surpass in 50 years. Britain faced the same challenges and it just passed the torch off to us. We will probably pass it off to India because they are an ally and the world's largest democracy. America will always hold a seat at the UN security council, but new seats will need to be added. So America will not be squashed, but it's power will be diminished.

We are a freedom loving nation that was founded on morals and uses that base to help the rest of the world out of problems. The government is strong and is decided by its people. We have resolved many conflicts around the world without them escalating and give billions of dollars and aid to almost any country that asks for it. My short answer, based on those facts, is yes, The United States of America is the greatest country on earth and I am proud to live and serve such a nation.

it is everything that you said. the way that America was set up made it so that it could last through the times with only slight changes. if you look at the constitution you can see that they have only made clarifications with all of the amendments but as a whole it hasn't changed for the 200+ years that it has been in place. we also offer many basic freedoms that many countries take away from people.  when you think about it when this country was formed with the government and all there had to be someone behind all of the process some God like being behind it all trying to help it all form correctly and to be able to run smoothly.

Unfortunately, the Americans have the power to impose their way of life on the rest of the world, which is rather unpleasant if you are at the receiving end. The Europeans resent the fact that the US is the current bully in the schoolyard. History shows that there is always one dominating power which has the capacity to bully the rest of the world. However, these powers will eventually fall into corruption and decadence. See the history of the Roman empire as an example. When will it be the turn for the US to follow the same fate and which power will become the next bully?

While I don't agree 100% to all the decisions made by the US since vietnam, undoubtedly, it has made us the most powerful nation in the world. We dont have civil unrest, no shortage of food or medicine or oil, unlike other countries. Russia has been cut into small pieces of smaller countries. We have 11 million illegals who want to become americans. Doesnt that say something about our great country? Tell me of another country where there are that many illegals who want the same? \n\nSo I say, wherever the US goes it is protecting American interests. America is good if you are American.

No other country on the continent considers themselves American.

Because our country's whole name is "The United States of AMERICA"  and also because we are the dominating force in all of the Americas.\n\nBut not everyone calls it "America" outside of the US.  It is often frequently called "The States."\n\nMost of the time we're just called "Those Terrorists" lol

Present America is like pre WWII Germany!\nYou just see they want any others to prosper. Because of their ongoing fookish decisions, whole world is suffering (e.g. hike in petrol price to $72/barrell!!! Is it not fact?)\n\nAmericans are enjoying their lavish life at the cost of world.\n\nThose who think otherwise, should re-assess their veiws & may modify their comments.

Hmm America is strongest and most powerful country in the world And it is nation of immigrants. So it is highly unlikely that immigrants are distroying a country.\n Rather they make it better :-)

It is:\n\n1.  Because America has the most.  Yes, jealousy.\n\n2.  Because America infringes on other countries the most.\n\nThey are an easy target for criticism, which may be a good thing.  In any case, the absolute truth is that there are no selfless countries out there.   There are no countries looking for a deeper meaning to life as their number one priority.\n\nMost of the people in this world have no idea what happens outside their village, let alone their country.  Most could care less, as well.  The truth is, it's just easier to criticize America.\n\nThat may be best though, because it's one of the few countries stable enough to handle the criticism and possibly learn from it.

can I answer if I not from America?:) \nfor most of the people America is a bussines country. everything is negociable, even the faith, even the friendship. \nand people who want to make money want to live in America. and when they go there, they try to find people from their country and live toghether. \nso, America is like a temptation for have a better life.\n\nand is not about hate, but fear. the fear of losing the family tradition, the things that are saint for you. because, when you have the freedom to do everything, you can lose everything.

We have given more to the world than any nation on Earth. Our people have sacrificed themselves all over the world, we give money and aid to everyone. We are the place people are trying to get into from all over the world. Yes I am proud to be an American.

America is a country that just takes your breath away with it's beauty, It's a nation that you feel free and safe, And it's a nation that I'd be proud to die for, so my children and their children will always be free.
