It certainly feels like there's a lot of unjustified pressure on this forum to portray the US as categorically worse than every other country. I have other controversial opinions which are at least met by understandable rebuttals, but this "America doesn't do everything horribly" seems to violate some sacred taboo (and I suspect particularly so with the European and progressive American cohorts). In whichever case, a few Internet Points is a small price to pay. :)
