Why does America look good?

Americas looks good because the people and the society don't know all the faults and troubles that are going on. They don't know the trouble some people have to face on a day to day basis. This is similar to the world today because we only know what the Government wants us to know about. We don't know the full extent of what is going on in the world. For example, most of the people in America don't know what the situation in Iraq is. I bet that if we knew exactly what was going on and what the President is and isn't doing, America wouldn't look as good as it does when it is blindfolded.
