It's the best of the possible countries. I'm not terribly happy to be American but its better in terms of liberty than most countries. That's not really saying much though. It's mostly an expanding corporatist state with ever growing inklings of fascism.
And forced tyranny is redundant.

Overall, though, it's the bigness of the car that counts the most. Because when something bad happens in a really big car – accidentally speeding through the middle of a gang of unruly young people who have been taunting you in a drive-in restaurant, for instance – it happens very far away – way out at the end of your fenders. It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
