So, I don't buy the narrative that this country has been successful because it was morally superior to every other country and now it is doing really bad things that will make it pay.


Didnt HE tell slaves to be good ones?


If that is some Bible quote, I really wouldn’t know. But, if that is how you justify it, I cannot comprehend it. Also, if that is what you believe, for the sake of your own salvation, I guess you should be a good one if the government decides that you should be one. Enjoy.
