I feel this is a subjective answer.  Politically we like to refer to making America great again.  What does that actually mean for each of you?

I’d like to keep this as civil as possible.  I think it’s ok to have different opinions of what makes America great.

A growing middle class.  We’re only good at making millionaires and broke people now.

We should merge this with the Sydney Sweeney thread.  😀

what makes America great.  

absent the insane diversity of states and places to visit and shit to do but for me it's that rugged individualist be anything you want to be and sink or swim it's all on you.  western expansion.  pioneers.  titans.  no one is stopping you.  you can come from the same high school and become the richest man in the world, a s. ct. justice, or a backyard bare fisted brawling legend!  it's all at your feet.  

that's why i laugh when people post "i'm embarrassed to travel overseas."  that's woke indoctrination.  99 percent of those people would have traded to be americans in a heart beat.  we're the greatest country every created

I'm not sure, but I'll answer what I think made it great.  It was founded by Christians who were committed to free markets, ownership of property, and personal freedoms more so than any other nation.  It also had the benefit of having the greatest geographic/resource advantage in the World.

That’s actually the opposite of what makes America great, but good try sport

 

America is great because we cherish the almighty dollar and don’t begrudge people their wealth. That creates an entrepreneurial spirit that is not found anywhere else in the world.

The middle class and and their replaceable skill set are not what makes America great and you’d have to be a moron to suggest as much.

The idea that American greatness is tied to more equal distribution of wealth is so inane and stupid it makes me want to smack people that post or say as much.

@snarlcakes geography and resources and that entrepreneurial spirit are how we got great.  

Progressive Dems like this clown in ny are the opposite of that spirit

it’s more that civilizations with with strong middle classes beat ass and slay puss.  Didn’t say anything about equal distribution.  You read that into it because you are dumb as shit.  Spending your whole day here, beating no ass, slaying zero puss.  Fking sad.

@mapletom don’t be cunty and disengeuous now Maple. 

You trotted out some nonsense about how we only produce millionaires and broke people. Meaning you think our wealth distribution is skewed. That is a line of horse shit. Own your stupid comments.

Most guys here are old.  Some married, some divorced, some w kids.  No lives to speak of with lots of time to waste here. And then there’s you.  Maybe 37? Shitty at your job.  No friends. Talks weird  Catholic shit.  Needs this board and the old one to feel connected, but whoops — can’t even act normal here.  Lives in a city with millions of women but is too weird to hang out w any of them.  That’s some sad incel shit.  Please don’t shoot up a yoga studio.

@mapletom rude. Ask yourself what kind of insecurities you have to have to create constructs of others posters personal lives to deflect from your intellectual inadequacies.

 

You are the definition of a lightweight.

The USA is great for a number of reasons:

1. Constitutional Republic 

2. Property Rights

3. Rule of Law

4.Natural Resources

5. Geography
