When I am asked which country is best (US V.s UK) I always answer the same way, neither! Quite simply there is good and bad in both country.

However if you listen to the politicians (most of whom have their head up their arses) or most of the news channels here there is no way that America could be any less than the greatest in the world.

17 million illegal aliens say it's a 'better' country, but probably not the greatest.

Rock and roll was invented here, but it didn't take long for the Brits to get the idea. Ironically, I've had Led Zepplin's "Rock and Roll" in my head all day.
