That video was good. Im glad some Americans realize that there is a lot of problems with the country. Calling it the greatest country in the world is just over inflated ego. Gravity cat wrote...

Most British people hate Britain. Pessimism, antipathy and annoyance are national sentiments, whether it's the weather, chavs and other morons, European 'meddling'/the pro-EU lament, perpetually useless government, or Republicanism.
Granted there are plenty of nationalist fucktards who claim to be protecting 'British culture and values' against 'Sharia law', but they're clamped down on like any other religious extremist group. Meanwhile, the population at large ranks them with the BNP as good for nothing, racist thugs.
The most genuinely racist and conservative parts of the country are the rural counties like my home, Kent, where there's barely any immigration. But Britain is by and large an incredibly liberal place. This Tory government only got in by coalition, after years of Blair and New Labour, which were almost universally despised.

So many reasons
Bad educations system
Pollution
Health service(the rich live the poor die)
Fatness(I swear the US is going to pull a Wall-e)
Government
Teenagers(I swear to god that with this new generation America is just done for)
Prison system
but there are thing they are number 1 at
Jokes aside there are allot of things that I like about the US but I find countries like Canada,South Korea,Japan,Australlia, and the UK to be way better. I think with the US being all global and such, they feel like they are #1 when in my experiance in Canada,Korea,Japan,UK,Mexico,China and Australlia most people either dislike the country or just don't care about it.

Racism like that is only common in the south of England and places where there is a lot of chavs though there is a lot more foreigners down south than up north which is probably the reason. And it's London I thought it was a bit crappy things are more expensive and less quality of any where else in the country.

Don't change. As long as America spend 60% of their yearly budget on defense funding I can live in a country with virtually no defense funding at all. It allows us to spend our money on education, health care, and to solve the majority of our problems. God bless America and their big stick attitude, the benefit to me is immeasurable.

When america starts benefiting the world and not fear mongering the fuck out of everyone, i may start caring about its existence.
Did the american government ever realize that all that military spending was pointless when 99.9% of the rest of the world don't care about america anymore?
Also, in my opinion it isn't the people of america that people dislike, it is the politicians that run the country. What ever happened to the level headed people who used to run america for the good and well being of its people and the world, instead of running fear into the populace and lining its pockets with cash.
