Why are so many of you still holding onto American exceptionalism?

People staring at education test scores and healthcare cost saying America sucks and isnt leading the free world by a mile always cracks me up.

Current guy in charge is doing everything in his power to fix that. :francis:

Citizens doing the rest by being idiots. :beli:
Even before Trump I don’t know what America is objectively the best at besides excessive force (military strength, mass incarnation, police brutality, etc). I don’t think we’re even top 10 in any of the quality of life studies I’ve seen.

Funny how we can’t even go abroad now after your party ensured we’d be the only country to fukk up our response to a pandemic. But yea, go America

:mjlol:

Please explain why should we ignore measurable standards of living in favor of the argument that America is “leading the free world”?

You believe Canada is the best country in the world...:leon:

:hubie:Aiight
Oh what should they start at?
I asked you what metrics you would like to use and you ignored me.

Now I'm posting a list from a publication based on the work of social scientists and all you got is a doubting attitude but no answers. If you think America is number 1 give us at least an idea why you think that? You not giving us anything to support the doubt you are casting. :francis:

Number 1 overall :russ:
This isn’t college football, there’s no undisputed #1 overall country. But actual research and statistics show that we may not even be top 10.

Everything...

Healthcare outcomes
Healthcare cost
Diversity
Economic stability
Economic mobility
Separation of powers
Access to capital
Social Justice
Diversity
Military might
Infrastructure
Quality of life
Inclusivity
Technological advancement
Educational standards
Graduation rates
Quality of Learning institutions
Law and Order
Exploration
Energy Production
Altruism

To name a few...
To simply look at healthcare cost and say America is ass cheeks is asinine.
