We need to start teaching kids from day 1 how fortunate they are to have been born in the US vs a third world country. The problem with kids (and everyone) today, is far too many don’t appreciate how fortunate they are or how good they have it. Hell, they’ve been taught that they should be ashamed of themselves for being American, should be ashamed of America’s history and even ashamed of how they were born. Education needs a complete overhaul. No, the US isn’t perfect, but it’s a damn good place relative to most of the rest of the world. There are 8 billion people in the world. 340m in the US (of which many weren’t born here). Thats 4% of the world population in the US or 4 out of 100. Pretty dang lucky of those that were born here (or even born at all)
