Why the United States Is a Morally Good Country: A View from the Center

By Phil Kershner

Did you know that the U.S. ranks 18th in the world on the UN Happiness Index, tenth on its Human Development Index, and fifth on its Education Index? Did you know that the life expectancy for people of color in the U.S. is greater than the life expectancy for white people? Did you know that greater percentages of people are moving here from many of the countries with whom we are often unfavorably compared, than are moving from the U.S. to those countries, and that the U.S. remains by far the top destination of choice for people around the world who want to leave their country? Did you know that the middle class is shrinking not because people are falling out of it but because people are rising above it? Did you know that a British foundation ranks the U.S. as the fifth most generous nation in the world? All this and much more you will learn in this book--which builds the case that these are indications of moral goodness, and the U.S. is a morally good country.
