Why should I?
I just figured it would be a prerequisite to someone wanting to make their country better.
No, having to live here is really the only thing you need to have in order to care about making the place not a shithole.
What do I get for the "love"?
The most expensive healthcare in the world, Some of the worst worker protections, Massive compensating disparity, And blatantly corrupt politics.
Yeah, great things to love.
No, I don't love it because it's headed down a shitty path and being pushed there by shitty people who reject the core tenets of who we were supposed to be.
But I want to improve it so that they cannot tear it apart, and might some day be worthy of respect and love.
This country is likely done for. Time to start planning for the one to come after the fight.
