Argentina is not a great country

Suppose that patriotism is sincere, because people feel it. Or suppose that, without nationalistic ourselves, one would go to worship their city, their province, their situation in Argentina, his being here, their customs and their friends. It's all good. It's nice to feel those things are part of a healthy attitude in life: wanting the same, enjoy it. That love arise affirmative forces that improve the situations that we want to improve.
But now comes the question: is it necessary to hold Then the absurd idea that Argentina is a great country? Consider the facts: while having great natural resources we can not eliminate poverty. We have grown, we have fallen, we have improved (and I mean, the main improvement that we no longer political violence) and yet a large part of our countrymen continue to suffer misery. Not all Argentine children eat, nor uneducated, nor do they have adequate health care. Not all the Argentine people have jobs, or know how to work. Or want to work (there are all variables). Not just this picture, true of all truth, to conclude that there are a great country? Large countries
are by their capacity for great achievements. It is useless to say that all Argentine children have the right to food: we must achieve to feed them. Large countries succeed. Its production is enormous, no money, resources. Management capacity is high, know how to generate effective care plans (as opposed to what we believe in innocence, the big countries spend more than we care plans and also make them better.) Large countries, when faced with social work, objectives are not blurred by political expediency or corruption, as happens to us. The big countries know limit corruption, the use of public purposes private. The large countries are able to develop more effective security forces, because although there are criminals everywhere, not all victims are made to the system and wants to free the oppressive weight of capitalist repression (verse poetry champion among possible) .
Big countries do not live on the obscenities with their politicians, because people who make them up, rather than do the trick of removing responsibility enjoying the enchanting art of continuous and meritorious puteada disappointment get in the game and generate options for change. Big countries do not reject their politicians, they have better politicians. Big countries reinvent politics when feel it necessary, because people who live in them when they see issues in the government who do not like, get into the theme for the battle which is the work of improvement.
Yes, of course, is the use of power and sleep. Argentina is a great country for things that could be achieved. But while not achieved, this presumption is cheap narcissism, nationalism Beretta. Or worse: those who think that Argentina is a great country because many years ago lived a significant time of development. However, the large developing countries do not throw the hard-won marchanta a constant feast of demagoguery and populism. The big countries continue to work.
We have to assume the burden of truth: Ours is not a great country. Yes, we're pretty smart, beautiful, charming, combinationes, talented but we have a great country. Do we like it? Okay. It is a good target. In addition, achievable. Others have made, why we are not going to do? Do what is necessary.
One of the things needed is what this article proposes, not to cultivate an empty pride, symbolic, ideal love and confused. The love of country is shown in specific jobs. This practice of ours to love much and doing nothing is not love, is blablabla. That symbolism confuse, deceive, delay. To love and be at puteadas is not love. We have no right to live by rejecting the policy, we have to enter it and improve it. We must create a political environment where healthy competition for power does not generate constant obstruction of sound management. We must build a policy of creativity and understanding, not one of confrontation and egocentric, disabilities and constant disappointments. We must do it now because not only are we a great country, we are not eternal. Anyone want to help?
