p.s. - Please let me add
There are great countries in the world, many great places to live and we in terms of humanity are fortunate to have this diversity
I chose the USA as #1 for freedom for many reasons (not putting down any other countries or cultures) one of the major reasons is a lower tax rate than many countries
Also the USA owes a debt to the fine upstanding countries such as England and Australia who chose to stand united with the USA in our challenges against terrorism (and fight for oil and stability in the Middle East)
Yes you can disagree and/or flame me as much as you like (or not) that's one of the great things about the Internet - exchange of ideas and information
