America is Great?

Undoubtedly America is great, but how great? With the technology we have today, America has surpassed most of world in general, but there are many flaws to our system that prevents us from being the greatest. I remember when I was a kid watching food commercials with that hot chick on the Carls Jr. commercials, and the part that shook me the most was that, luscious, juicy hamburger. Back then I wasn't really thinking about the ingredients all I knew was that I wanted it. But thinking back to it now, I realized that the meat used in burgers are a no bueno; the way I look at hamburgers now is completely different, I can imagine the procedure of the cow getting mowed down then put into machines and shipped to manufacturers. Honestly, after watching the food inc. video, looking at any kind of meat disgusts me.
