Why is it the best country in the world to pursue your dreams?
The culture of economic freedom USA allows individuals the opportunity to achieve great things in life that they could not achieve on other countries.

Unfortunately there has been a huge cultural battle fought in the USA the last 75 years (started w/ FDR) between liberals who want to change the economic culture of the USA to a 'typical European welfare state' and conservatives who want to maintain the culture of economic freedom. Unfortunately the typical economic conservative does not earn high marks when it comes to protecting social freedoms. The result is a choice between the lesser of two evils. The choice is easy for me. Vote for conservatives. Economic freedom naturally leads to more social freedoms despite laws which are passed to restrict social freedoms. The more money the people keep, the less money the govt has to try to control your life.... And that is a good thing.
