No I'm not perfect. And I don't expect our country to be perfect either. But, I just can't stand this notion that so many people have that the U.S. only acts out of altruistic concerns (sometimes we do), when it is really economic concerns that dictate most of our actions.

Re: "overlook the imperfections"

>>> 'Overlooking imperfections' does nothing to fix them. I'd rather our nation be in a state of constant improvement, working toward that unobtainable goal called 'perfection' rather than ignore flaws and stagnate.

>>> If we overlooked imperfections, slavery would still be legal.
