I'm American. Based on the domestic press and my own observations, I think the number per capita / power of fundamentalists is greater in the US than in other Western countries.

But regardless, my point is that today, the quality of life in other Western countries is at least comparable, if not better, than that in the US. Thus, I don't see the basis for the US still being touted as the greatest thing since sliced bread in the 21st century.
