10. How big of you.
"You completely ignored homicide, suicide, health care, poverty, housing, infant mortality, domestic abuse, and child abuse." Oh, I forgot, there was no poverty or infant mortality in Mao's China. Give it a rest.

Glad you were able to scour the historical record and finally identify some good that America stands for - NPR and the like. You left off a few minor accomplishments like the defeat of Nazi Germany, the Marshall Plan, the immunization of hundreds of millions of Third World children, the vast majority of the world's food aid, the cure for polio, etc.

Either way, your first impulse was to relfexively lash out in hatred of the United states, which is telling. I think we know where you're first instinct lies. Well, at least you have plenty of company.
