"When you grow up in middle America you are inculcated from the earliest age with the belief - no, the understanding - that America is the richest and most powerful nation on earth because God likes us best. It
has the most perfect form of government, the most exciting sporting events, the tastiest food and amplest
portions, the largest cars, the cheapest gasoline, the most abundant natural resources, the most productive
farms, the most devastating nuclear arsenal and the friendliest, most decent and most patriotic folks on
Earth. Countries just don't come any better. So why anyone would want to live anywhere else is practically
incomprehensible. In a foreigner it is puzzling; in a native it is seditious. I used to feel this way myself."
- Bill Bryson
Write a response to the quotation below that analyzes the author's assertion, that is, analyze the statement
