    It is the unrivaled empire of the world. The wealthiest country, largest exporter for over a century, and has a military possibly equal to the next six largest in the world combined. We've been called an enemy you can trust, a great place to live, but you wouldn't want to be our neighbor. In those respects we are the greater nation, but for corrupt politics and social problems in general we rank about as low as you can go and still be in the developed world.

    No. The US try to interfere with anything and everything everywhere, imperial overstretch, the main soucres of income are Wallstreet gambling companies (aka investment banks...hahaha).

    China is. And China managed to grow from a peasant farming nation into a country where people dont hunger, an ever growing living standard, a growing freedom of speech (at a very low level, but growing).
    And China owns the US, with 2000 billion US$ in debt papers, that is around 7500$ per American citizen owed to China alone.
    In Europe it is the UK, two years ago Germany. UK has remained independant from the Euro, the esperanto money which draws all of europe into desaster. Also, they give a flying **** for the rules of the EU administration in Brussels, which is just a bunch of parasites feeding of the blood of European citizens.
    That is all.

    China is slow to act so it will be beaten by the USA and Britain.

    Apparently, the quality of education in the United States is poor even when it comes to the English language. "Greater" is used to compare two items. Is the USA the greatest nation in the world? Yes, but not by enough.

    I'm Canadian but I was a long haul trucker and spent years down in the Good ol USofA and I have friends from coast to coast. I love Americans! I should say most Americans, there have been one or two that I wouldn't care too much if I never saw them again but mostly America is truly the Land of the strong and brave. I wish Canada had some of your laws and I wish you had some of ours. eg. To put a man in jail for possesion of a joint is a bit much. Anyway, you guy's are a Great country!

    Have a Great day!

    It's been the most powerful nation in the world for a while, if that's how you want to define "great". Whether it still is is an interesting question, but what's pretty clear is that no-one stays in that position for ever.

    It seems to me that everyone in the world wants to immigrate to the US. So for as much as people say they hate us, I think it comes down to jealously. Even our poorest citizens, live like kings, compared to most of the world.

    Many factors go into defining "great." Our ideas regarding self government, which have spread all over the world, are among our greatest contributions to humankind.

    Because we have such high ideals, more is expected of us than might be expected of, let's say, "East Bakfakistan," with its long history of kleptocratic monarchs with one set of rules for the home folks but a different set of rules for its princes when they take a private jet to London for call girls and whiskey.

    In short, the question of which is the "greatest nation in the world" cannot be answered without answers to two other questions: 1. Defined how? 2. In what areas?

    We were once that shining city on the hill. Lately we're not having the best of days. Hopefully we will correct ourselves as we have done in the past. In the past, the USA has been a blessing on the world, but our hands have never been free of blood. Presently we are in danger of becoming what we have fought so desperately against.

    How the **** should I know? I haven't lived everywhere. And anyone who claims their nation is the best in the world is making some pretty vast assumptions.

    That said, your home is your home and its the best place -for you-. But to say that one country is better than other is just horsecrap.

    Glaxo Smith Kline was just fined several billions for fraudulent--and dangerous--activities regarding their drugs (like saying that a medication was OK for children when it wasn't, etc.). In addition, GSK illegally paid Dr. Drew to push their products. Glaxo Smith Kline is not a government. It's a huge pharmaceutical corporation. What's your fear/outrage level over increasing corporate control of Americans' lives?
