I speak German, I'm not american, and I _think_ I know what is meant, so my
question is:
Why is it that I have the strong impression (and I would be very happy to be
proven wrong) that most Americans think the US is the _ONLY_ free country in
the world ?
Sometimes we wonder about what the world perceives as freedom.
--How much of other countries' services are nationalized or socialized? �
--Is medical care provided in an open manner, or socialized such as in Canada, or Britain? �
--how much regulation is there regarding motor vehicles, firearms, and the right to hunt?
--What kinds of speech are permitted? �Is there a prohibition about certain religious freedoms?
Certainly, we know best the country we live in. �It was founded on people trying to guarantee these principles. �Do other countries include in their foundational documents guarantees against the federal government intrusion into private lives? That's what our Constitution is supposed to do. �
My questions are inquiries, not meant to be accusatory. �I would like to hear your response. �
