Default Is America the greatest country in the world?

I was having a conversation/debate earlier with my husband stimulated by the words of politicians including our current presidential candidates. So, I was just wondering what you think - is America the greatest country in the world?

I demand to know if you are a male or a female, your age and occupation.

And no snark. I have already been called a 'bastard' today and got some karma from Manc. My world is akimbo.

Kali-forniarrr is a prolific and opinionated poster. Do any of us know whether this 'it' is a boy, girl, federal agent provocateur?
