Americans seem perfectly happy to not have socialized healthcare and to drive on shitty roads.
Not this American! I'd rather be taxed all to hell and get, as you've said, bang for my buck.
Neither am I particularly proud to be from an enormous, warlike, undereducated country with a vicious class divide. I don't see where my tax money is better spent on the military.
I agree with your second-to-last paragraph, but please tone down the snootiness. You're not better than I am because you were born over the border.
