I guess my biggest gripe is about people who are US citizens that have NO pride for the United States, but give tribute, homage and all of their love towards another country.
one more thing, there are great people in this country. there are great people serving this country and giving their lives for this country.
but i am of the firm belief that the government does not give two shits about the individual.
i love my family and what they have worked for in order to give me a nice home to live in and an opportunity to make something of my self. luckily they were able to do it here in america.
but in my 21 years of living i have seen more and more that those in power are only there to get more power. police officers abuse their power, politicians line their pockets and lie, and the government does not perform where it needs to.
the US sends its own people out to get killed in iraq but we cant solve our own damn problems here at home.
i love the people here that i have known and i love the people who DO work to better others and to help those who are less fortunate, but i do not love this government. its a business and to love a business that exists only for profit is lunacy.
what am i trying to say? if i weren't born here and have lived all of my life here, i would not love america and its government. id love where i came from and my family and people i knew there that i had left behind.
