#This reminds me of video I saw a while back. It's apparently a clip from an HBO show call the Newsroom. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMqcLUqYqrs). There is a type of panel discussion where somebody asks why the US is the greatest country in the world. Two people gives some answers like freedom and diversity. Then finally the 3rd guy gives a good answer about how it actually is not the greatest country. He uses statistics to show that the US is far from #1 in so many areas. Maybe the US was better before, but there are so many countries doing better in different fields. If you just take freedom and diversity, then there are dozens of countries with that.#
 Assuming without conceding that there is freedom and diversity. What does the freedom brings than immortality and the diversity when they failed to recognized those people who  built the so called country. There is no crime in dreaming to be the most greatest country but what I am sure of is that time will tell.
There's a convenient button above everything post to quote it nicely. You don't need to use the # signs. I almost feel like you just put together a random string of words. Either that or you're writing in some version of English that I'm not familiar with. Of course there is no crime in dreaming to be the greatest country. The thing is that you can't just dream to have the best country, then go around telling everybody you have the greatest country. You need to actually do things to make your country the greatest. I don't think the goal should really be to be the greatest though. It should just be to be the best you possible can be.
