My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask

When I saw this sentence, I can't resist to think of the famous lie created by president John kennedy: "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country".

A COUNTRY WAS BUILT TO SERVE THE PEOPLE!!!

Do you think people are so boring that they have to build a country to serve to?

But there is always a bunch of idiots lost in these gorgeous words, don't even take a single moment to think of it, completely forgot the purpose of what a country was built for. The means eventually become the object, and millions of millions idiots sacrifice their life for this imaginary object.

A LANGUAGE WAS BUILT TO SERVE THE USER!!!

In the American way of thinking, the country *is* the people.  So it was
neither a lie nor a bad thing that Kennedy proclaimed.  Maybe this is
not true for other countries, but I think most Americans would feel it
is true for their country.  And indeed the sentiment that Kennedy
expressed resonates deeply with many/most Americans. A country is only
made great by citizens willing to do many things for the good of the
country and their fellow citizens.

A country in which citizens only expect things from the country and
never think about their ability to change and benefit the country is a
week country indeed.

I say this as a someone not from the US.

I don't think any country can be "great" if it can't even take care of its own people well. American can not be great because of there are millions of citizens has no enough food, health cares and living on the street, at the same time this country spend billions of dollars on bombing other country's people.

This situation is painful to human mind and it was supposed to be solved by the country leaders. But politicians are incapable of doing anything except been good on spreading glorious words and sentences. As an anaesthetic to divert people from this incapability, these words also make some Americans happy to ignore the facts and continuously to believe that American is still a great country.
