When it all comes down to it, every country with a great amount of power, no matter their original intentions...becomes corrupt. so corrupt that it can only be destroyed from within via revolution.
You shouldn't judge people based on their country because not everyone believes in patriotism just because you were born in a country. In fact I don't think anyone should be patriotic about any country at all....we're just animals molding the land like playdough. sometimes we don't like our design and start over. sometimes we find one we like and stick to it because we like it, even if it could be better. The United States is Rome, it is England, it is Egypt, it is Persia...it is a region of land that has great wealth and moronic citizens who feel a sense of purity and pride and a government who laughs as it digs it's hands into those citizens pockets. Every single country has corruption, scandals, tragedies, genocide, revolutions, trials, torture, war, and all the 'bad' things in the world. There's just usually one or two countries in the center spotlight that put on the show for the rest of the world to get distracted by the history of mankind. This isn't new. This is just the boring stage where people talk about dissatisfaction and change. I give the revolution another 50-100 years. If we make it that long.
We are already on the downward spiral.
