It never was the way, we were the place other countries sent their people to learn how we did things so well, like education, postal service, interstate high way systems, healthcare, on and on. US was NUMBER 1 in almost everything.
Now, for example, we rank 33 out of 36 in infant mortality in OECD countries. So, yeah, we suck, and as long as a certain segment of the country keeps pushing US exceptionalism, it won't get better.
Complaining about problems is not the same as hating our country. I earned may right to complain about what is going on. I love my country and I want it to be number one again - do you?

Which crap holes??? Pretty much ALL of them.
Those with better healthcare??? None of them even come close to the US
Happier citizens???? Well, the saying that ignorance is bliss.
We rank 33 out of 36 in infant mortality----What a joke! That is a WHO trumped up statistic. Why? Because all those other 35 countries only count deliveries beyond 34 weeks gestation in their statistics. We, on the other hand, count any 24 week premie to a crack mother than goes "wah" once and dies in our mortality rate. Level the playing field, WHO, except they don't want to because they believe in socialist crap holes.
Guess what---
WE ARE NUMBER ONE!!!!!!!
