We have the lack of sight and any experience of the real world????? We are made up of people from all over the world. We protect the world from assholes leaders who kill their own people. Just because we like to live free and not have our government babysit us and control us does not make us less experienced it makes us smarter. ............

Sorry.. can't be bother responding to all of that quote.. tis just too absurd.
(a) Yes, there is little doubt there is a lack of sight and experience of the real world. Again, a generalisation, since I know of many who are aware. At the same time I am tired of explaining to some that London is not part of Paris and a Caribbean Island is not in the Indian Ocean. The sad truth is many US people can't even point to Washington on a map or know the State next to where they live. Even the President did not know that the people of Greece were not "Grecians". What hope of even beginning to understand any other nations???
(b) Another assumption that the "US is the protector of freedoms". In some instances this has been correct. However, the US has nothing but a trail of disaster in other countries and is usually involved for nothing more than greed. You don't have to look far to see this - but don't rely on CNN.
(c) Your opinions of "free" leave a lot to be desired. There is no other country in the western world that is less free than the US. This lack of freedom ranges from privacy to imprisonment without trial. The US is also the country which, by far, has reached all records in imprisoning it's own citizens. It also hounds them to all parts of the globe for tax revenue - a practice only used by three "third world" countries.
(d) There is no other country in the western would that "babysits" and "controls" it's citizens more than the US - to the point of absurdity. This is a kinda joke when others see it.
If you consider this is "freedom" and "experience of the real world" - you need to get some of that sight and experience before saying any more. But suppose it is what some are "used to".
