Answer 9

Mostly ashamed. People are heartless, the general health of everyone is crippling under their own weight, the medical industry is EXTREMELY corrupted and the only thing more valuable than the health of everyone to them is the almighty dollar (they've made over 5 billion dollars off vaccines that are loaded with toxins, causing mental disabilities and extreme sickness, they know about it, they're not changing because of how much money they make off the pills people buy to "thwart" problems caused by their vaccines), celebrities can get away with more illegally than anyone else, people don't want to be healthy and add 20 or 30 years to their lives because they are lazy, corruption is everywhere, no one cares about how much we're destroying the earth, self image is more important than anything to way too many people, people are destroying themselves with alcohol and drugs...the list goes on. Who can guess what country I live in? :D

Answer 10

I am both at the moment, Our counry is the freest country in the world and offers many great oppertunities. But there are alot of problems comming our way, Stealing of our liberties, bad education, Illegals, cheap labor, and more importantly ignorant Americans who pay attention to American Iol than whats goig on in our own country. Our society has become selfish and lazy. Its not too late to turn things around. Atleast I hope not, what a shame....

Most of the time I am ashamed, and that does not make me unpatriotic.  I am proud to live in such a developed and powerful country.  However, I am ashamed of what we've become on the international scene and I am grossly ashamed of the great disparities and injustices that are still alive and well in this country I love.

Answer 21

USA ashamed of its foreign policy and thinks how everoyne is a terrorist. the only thing good is the free

Answer 22

Proud to be American. Pissed at my Government.

Country has a world wide history of freedom and relief from oppression. People from almost every country in the world look to this country when they flee from oppressive governments and we, as a rule, accept them freely as long as they assimilate. A poor immigrant can bring his family here and in one generation have a child in the best colleges in the world and all they have to do is work.

My gov't however has turned into a bunch of self-serving, embezzling, socialistic, fascist sellouts that only have their next term in mind instead of preserving the letter and spirit of The Constitution.

Answer 23

Proud of my country, not so proud of some in it.

Answer 24

Both, I suppose. But at least I know the US will never be completely overwhelmed by nationalism like Japan or Germany in WW1/2 because we're made up of so many races that it's impossible for all of us to get along.

Answer 25

Both.  

Answer 26

proud. i love america through and through.  

Answer 27

I'm proud of my country as a whole, that doesn't mean I can't be unhappy with an individuals choices/actions.
