I was thankful enough to have a tandem 7th-8th grade combo of English and History teachers who taught us the value of cognitive awareness. Followed by a high school math teacher that introduced me to "A True History of the United States" because they actually gave a damn. It's far too easy to see that we are the new Roman Empire, but on a speed run.

    You can basically throw a dart at the map and hit a country better than the US in some way. The US is ranked pretty far down in just about every metric you would want in a good society.

    You don't have to be an expert to see that, you just have to not be blind.
