You need to be grateful! I am sorry, I know things are bad out there, but things are worse out of the US. I know this doesn't work, but I feel like learning to be grateful for the things we have is way too important. I am grateful even for the small things in life that we all take for granted.

Don't be cynical. It's not good for you either. Your country despite it's imperfections has been THE shining beacon of hope for many immigrants. The separation between the church and state is no small thing, it's a revolution. Free speech is precious. Idk, don't let the media fool you, despite it's imperfections, USA is a great country :(

I would have loved to have been born there, received an education which I now only can dream of.
