We the Sissy People - Explaining the character, moral and societal decline of the United States (Paperback)

Is the United States the greatest nation on earth?

The narrative is to be believed; however, it is not clear that there is no nation that considers itself less than the greatest on earth. Smaller nations know better than to pick fights with other nations that may have more capacity to fight wars and do other things. This volume provides an external perspective of the United States, garnered from living in the United States and considering several aspects of life in the country. The volume points out that there are areas where the United States may not be as great as it supposes.
