Whenever I watch Fox they say that all the time :-S

There is no such thing as the greatest. There are many areas in which the US excels, and many others in which it doesn't. From where I stand, having a large number of people who say we are the greatest nation in the world is a pretty good indication that we aren't. Either way, it doesn't matter. This is the nation we have, and the goal should be to make it better -- by making myself better. If I can improve my own life, through my own activity, I have made the nation better by extension.

Money wise, America rakes in the most profit in the world. Yet, they have the most dept in the world and the highest child death rates, and die younger than in places such as England and Canada. It's a debatable subject, but in my opinion, there isn't a "greatest country in the world".
