Nation on fire

As many people know America has been having troubles economically. The nations backbone has been getting hit the hardest. Herbert the author of A fire in the Basement, pointed out that many people do not acknowledgethat there is indeed a problem. Herbert at one point recognized that the troubles include American pride. Where people once used to believe in American spirit and recognized the American soldier, fo r everything that he or she did. In today's society, many people do not care about the next individual and forget that having American spirit is critical in the nature of being a citizen of the United States
As once said before,"It's not what America can do for you but what you can do for America"(jkf). This means that we should really care about where we live and about one another.
Where would we be with out the citizens who bravely fought for thier country. I can say one thing for sure, and that is that we would not be where we are today with out such individual fighting for what was right. After thinking about nations society issues it is remembered that we do indeed have a stong pat of being prud, and i hipe to see that again one day.
