Maybe to you. Where I was standing people were cheering and chanting USA! USA!

It's perfectly reasonable to enjoy most of the things about a country and still find issues with it. It's also perfectly reasonable to question and complain about stuff when you think it's wrong. Not doing that, putting your fingers in your ears and running away is arguably the worse crime.

Which is funny since many of the US wealthy regard their homes outsides the States as bailout refuges if the situation in the States gets hostile to them. (Which is probably a good insurance policy...)

The inequality adjusted HDI says there are exactly 15 countries better than the US in the world.

Also, don't you find it a tiny bit ironic that your response to him was childish and immature e.g. "Well you can leave, if you don't like something". If everyone was like you, we'd have no progress, no revolution, and no change.

Or stay and fight. You know, like everyone else did before even when the others would say you should just go away.

If you don't like drama, why don't you leave for a country which doesn't have it?

This idiotic suggestion cuts both ways.

Sounds like a Brit talking to colonists in the New England Colonies: You don't like it here? Go away!

It's been made very clear that the 95% of the world's population not living inside America have absolutely no rights in the eyes of the NSA.

By indiscriminately spying on everyone, America has made this a global issue.

Just because other countries do bad things, it doesn't mean that you should put up with your representatives doing the same bad things (and blatantly lying to you about them).
