CEO of the company I work for once told us that being born in the US is the equivalent of winning the lotto and that we should all be very grateful rather than constantly complain about everything, becauause there are much worse places where could have been born.

Yes, us US guys bitch and moan about a lot of things.

He is right though IMO and I wouldn't trade it for anything. So I would still choose to be born here, in the greatest country in the world.

He stole that from a famous quote by Cecil Rhodes (De Beers founder, links to Rothschild) from the 1800's

"To be born English is to win first prize in the lottery of life"

It was certainly true back then, I'm not sure any country can say that any more including the US (despite the US being probaly one of only three or four countries I could see myself living in other than England).  I visit the US every year and I love the place.  But it has its faults like any country.  its pluses far outweigh its faults however.  A few days in New York followed by a stay in Florida again for me in May.  Love it.

That thief! 

Thanks for the info though, I wondered if he thought that up all by himself.

 

 

Where in NY do you visit? Ever went to Long Island?
