Look at China...thousands of kids died because of shoddy construction practices because of widespread corruption! Look at Burma, not Myanmar...the food being contributed is being resold on the world market to enrich the elites! Look at the Arab world...Some are awash in our oil money yet the Palestinians live in squalor! ...CHG...

The US is a PART of the world. Interesting that you don't mention any developed nations... Japan, Germany, Finland, Australia, Canada...

that could very well be Obama's thinking to change this country into a third world country not realizing that this country is the glue that holds the rest of the world together, this fool should not be elected////

I agree with above, the good ol' USA is part of this world. We are unique because we celebrate the greatest freedom in the world. That is why we should do our best not to make them like us, but to help. Countries like china, burma, are their own countries. We may not always agree with them, but that the beauty of the world.

The USA is getting a makeover and if the loss of big paying middle class jobs is not effecting you then you are very lucky. yes, we are sliding to a lower rung in our history with the economy falling like a lead ballon, poor support of a unpopular war..waste of billions of dollars..postage going up a penny..gas going up to be five bucks by summer, racial tensions going to get worse this November...immigratin out of control..we are no immune from a depression and already in a recession..I think with all this we are still the greatest country in the world but we all have to do better just to keep the status quo...maybe its time for the current generation to experience "hard times" to appreciate what we know take for granted...

ARE YOU KIDDING? No way. We have set a standard which the rest of the world should strive . We are leaders in the world in so many ways. There are those, both here and abroad, that resent it and would have us lower our standards in things such as charitable giving, humanitarian support and protecting those that need protection against outside and internal forces that mean harm to innocent people. We have something to be proud of, not apologetic. Leaders set the pace, not back up so others can 'feel' good about themselves.

The rest of the world should be working to become more like the United States, the greatest and freest nation on earth in spite of the efforts of the left. Unfortunately, totalitarian regimes such as those in Burma, N. Korea, Vietnam and throughout most of Africa make freedom and capitalism impossible. Therefore, billions live in poverty and want. Yet so virulent is the hatred of the democratic party and the rest of the marxist left for the United States that they want the US to become more like these failed, third world cesspools. Amazing.
