How Great Our We?

Today in human geography we went further into the topic of nationalism, the belief that your country is the greatest. But every country is going to have its problems. Especially now, America is far from great. We have poverty, a 7.2% unemployment rate, and a bunch of other things wrong with it. Who is to say we are the greatest? There always going to be something another country is better at than your country. People always say we are the greatest because we have freedom. That’s true we do have freedom, and about another 190 countries do as well. If that makes a country great, doesn’t that make all 190 free countries great? If we want America to be the greatest country in the world we have to work at it. Not just sit around and look at our phones and eat cheeseburgers from McDonalds. We Americans are ultimately what will make our country great, so we have to become the united country were named after and take a stand.
