Yea because we're the only country to have practiced slavery, centralized healthcare has worked so well in other countries, and our schools are so great as it is that the government needs to teach college too.

It doesn't say you're the only one. This post has nothing to do with other countries.

"centralized heathcare" may not work so well in other countries, but is doing better than the US. If you look at the United Nation rankings, The U.S. is ranked somewhere around 39th when it comes to "Healthcare systems". While Canada and all other First-world countries with healthcare are ranked higher. So no, health care isn't really "good", but compared the U.S, it does seem to fair better.

America is a lot more free than other countries that the government runs everything.

At least we're not like France who was trying to ban Muslims from wearing their religious clothing that covers them from head to toe, so America's way more free than that. Back off our asses, no other country is more free than us.

Republicans in America love to say they want government out of our lives, but then they fight for laws to prevent women from making equal pay for equal work, eliminate a woman's right to choose, severely criminalize petty drug use, and to prevent or eliminate gay people from marrying who THEY choose. Freedom in America is only for white christian men.
