I feel that any person who says this in general are young and naive. Even though I've never lived anyplace outside of the US, I do appreciate the country, even if I don't agree with everything about it, like say some government choices and such or how we don't seem to promote things like globalization as much as we should (just my opinion), but I wouldn't trade this place for anything else. I may want to live in Japan, but I could never see me actually wanting to become a citizen there.
IMO, anyone who says that he/she hates the US, should be shipped to a place like Israel or Iraq or Rwanda, etc., to see just how good they have it here in the US.
