Which is not all bad. I wonder if most of our problems stem from being a capitalistic society. Sometimes liberty and justice work better for people with more capital.
I agree with Librasoul. Just cuz we have it better doesn't mean we accept what we have just because it could be worse. And I don't think anyone is debating the quality of life that we have in America. I am grateful that I have the CHOICE to not say the pledge. I think the issue comes into what you believe, and I don't believe in the Pledge. Do I have faith that it could one day ring true? Sure. But there are so many mistruths up in EVERYTHING, and the pledge is just one of them. And the military... nevermind... I don't even feel like getting into this today.
