text: regardless America is still the strongest nation in the whole world, other nations look to America for leadership and direction and we because what we are because of capitalism, not socialism.  sure there are some socialistic countries but they are small and do not have any leadership in the global world.  the live in their own world and not worry or care about the welfare of all countries.  the reason for this - socialism, the people become complacent, lazy, no incentive to excel beyond what they have, they are not world leaders, trade leaders, etc.  we want  a country where people are energized to be great, to achieve and show leadership.  can't have people ask, where is my $100 allotment so I can buy food?  a capitalistic society spurs people to greatness, make progress in science, medicine and technology, hence making our lives better.  sorry but I don't like lazy people who only want everything given to them.  my parents taught me otherwise.
