Well I know how important it is to be a patriotic citizen, but honestly the kind of country and the government we have are not even worth my efforts. There has been no positive changes occuring in the country for a couple of years and all we get from the corrupt leaders is that they are here for us and the betterment of the country, which is a big lie. So no, my life didn't change because my country didn't grow but our economy declined. I can't trust anyone but my self.. if I'm to choose I'll need more money because it's the only thing that can help one to survive the difficult situations we find out selfs. Yes everything is not about money but sometimes money solves all problems, if you have enough..
