I don't think I'd declare any country the greatest. Each country is a collection of citizens, guests and well those with uncertain or undeclared status. People are imperfect being. We all make mistakes, cause hurt/pain and sometimes even screw up royally. How can any country arrogantly claim the title "greatest?"

Perhaps, in the age of technology which makes us more than ever global citizens it is time to put aside a scrambling for a status and instead seek collaboration, cooperation and communication so we can become a planet of people who thrive rather than scattered pockets of extreme wealth, poverty, those barely scrapping by and those blessed enough to call themselves comfortable.

Sadly my sociology background allows me to know such a life is actually quite impossible as the power deferential that comes with varying degrees of education, wealth impacted by nationality and ethnicity actually needed by cultures.....sigh.
