Many years ago, in a response to the counter-culture of the '60s, the refrain, "America, love it or leave it!" was a common talking point for the conservatives. I guess the implicit message behind it was that people should leave this idealized illusion of a perfect alone.
But every political system has its problems. The whole notion behind the formation of the United States was that the people should have the right to fix things that were not working right.
So maybe we should have a new refrain, as our country's problems mount: "America, Fix it or leave it!"
