In the eyes of God, it is only good to practice stewardship if you are an individual, not a country.

Israel practiced stewardship over the Temple and the sacrifices there for all of the world. I think someone could easily make an argument that what is spoken of in Deut. 10:14-15 is about a special stewardship role for ancient Israel. The idea that only individuals must practice stewardship also goes against the very idea of the US constitution - the government has the stewardship role of defender of the republic from foreign invaders.
