Is America really the best country? Really?

I have been raised in a simple middle class home, watching main stream media, remaining oblivious to the state of our nation. Growing up in america many of us would acknowledge the fact that we are if not the "best"  but one of the best countries in the world. That statement is just a mere observation to a social norm, often differentiating depending on the region that you reside in. The man focus of all this is so we as a people have a good idea of how we look against the rest of the world. Now i shall attempt to hopefully inform.

This video effectively embraces the fact that we as the american people should be more informed with real issues in terms of things such as national rankings, education, and etc. Many would simply say "all countries have their problems" well, OF COURSE THEY DO, but the point of all of it is to display disbelief in that this negative idea of being a more superior country in terms of most things if not everything. As a superpower acknowledged as a Republic and Democracy as main leg of national capitalism we should all recognize elements that have played a part in creating this amazing country.

Although the video has its own depth, statistics, and the main speakers own convictions with why he believes what he does, it should be left in the books. As Americans not all of use were raised the same, from context listed earlier but the speaker steals your attention. He is aggressive, informed, and passionate about being educating. Even though he is a little harsh and abrasive with the attitude he gave the student and audience his point reigns supreme. More people could prove this man right more than those who can prove him wrong.

Further analysis may inform the audience but presentation of this video will permit further perspective of my main argument of why america is not the greatest country.
Why America is NOT the greatest country in the world, anymore.

In conclusion, the speaker (Will McAvoy) expresses his hope in the nation completely capable of being better than it can be by simply reflecting and educating. The panel absolutely shows the opposite considering the answers that are given by not only the speakers but the visual ambience of the crowd themselves. The attention getter from all of this was because it only took one person to disprove a full room of students and staff simply because he was infromed. If that is truly all it takes to realize the state of the nation, or even this ignorant stigma of which majority of americans believe that our nation is the best, then we should truly evaluate and try to evolve from this. America did this already but the current generations could be achieving more by being informed in order for the nation to aspire and build itself like the founding fathers expected.
