It's a developing country. You will catch up.

Also you are very good at destroying things with weapons and intelligence agencies, so that's something you are good at.

Also we guys in western Europe are happy we are not ruled by Russia or China, and that's because of the USA I think.

I kind of like the US culture, but it's ridiculous how they treat human beings when money and power is on the line.

It isn't and we won't. The US is a post-developed country backsliding.
