We don't take this country for granted. We just have high standards. We want to see American be the best country that we can make it and rankings like this don't help matters.
Some of us see this nation waste money on way too much defense, unnecessary wars, and unfesable weapons alongside lopsided tax cuts that make the top 10% of americans pay a smaller percentage of their income than everyone else and then we look at the rankings like this... knowing we could make this place better if we just got our prorities straight as a society.
We're not perfect, but those in control aren't even trying to move us towards the ideal.
