My nation, which one is that, Michael? My living room or my kitchen? As for my criticisms of the United States, please look more into what I write. I know it's very difficult to find things on Medium given that they made it easier to find a needle in a haystack than a particular writer's archive. At least 20% of what I write is a criticism of Pax America's obsession with the consumption culture and progress being measured by how much-unneeded shit people buy.
