American Privilege

10/31/2020

 
There is a privilege out there and it is American privilege. Just the fact that someone is born here gives him or her a leg up on around 90% of those who live in other parts of the world. Someone here could make good choices in life and end up in the middle to upper income bracket, while the same good choices wouldn’t net much difference if you were born somewhere like Syria or Venezuela. Even if someone might think they aren’t blessed in this life, he or she would only need investigating conditions around the rest of the world to realize being an American is a tremendous honor.

So, with the above in mind, almost anyone who is born in the U.S., should have a good outlook on life. Why shouldn’t we? Don’t we have our basic needs? Don’t we own more “things,” than other people around the world (i.e. cars, homes, video games, smart phones, televisions, etc.)? Don’t our poor eat significantly more than poor people in other parts of the world?

There are a lot of young people who can’t stand our country, and this is so upsetting to me because they’re clueless. If someone could tell me why they've gone so far astray, please let me know. They don’t count being an American as something to be proud of which is why they have little to no respect for our founders or for the men and women who fought for us throughout our history.  As far as our country is concerned, we’d be way better off getting rid of these ungracious young people and swapping them out for young immigrants who want to be here and understand our nation’s value.
