[ Less affluent countries have paid the price for the freedoms provided, we certainly are able as well. ]

NO other country(other than the U.S.) in this entire world has now or ever has had any freedom..

Privileges granted by government are not freedom and they are not "rights" either.. They are merely privileges.. And it looks like the U.S. will soon have merely privileges too.. Then NO country in the world will have ANY freedom..

The difference between gov't granted privileges and "rights" and by having "rights" also freedom, is large.. The entire world is clueless. In, No country that ever existed the citizens had any "rights".. except the United States.. In the United States our rights are granted by "GOD" not the state.. if not God then WHOM.?... If there is NO GOD we'd better invent one quick.. or all our "rights" are merely gov't granted privileges.. and what we are doing is political masterbation.. deluded into thinking gov't granted privilege are "rights"..
