Thanks Michael. I think we more or less agree on what it's all about.

I'd add that the USA doesn't have a monopoly on those attributes you listed. I think and was trying to explain that I think those are normal human values, to which most people aspire when we are not up to our arse in alligators, and forget that we are there to drain the swamp.

The key to what it's all about is the free and voluntary exchange of value, and abandonment of the eons-old tribal kleptocratic dominance hierarchy conquest approach to territory, property and possession. It's a work in progress and the nice attributes you listed are forgotten all too often in pursuit of money, power and not to forget, oil.
