To the Americans:

I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.

And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:

You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.

This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.

Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.

This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.

But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.

This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.

And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:

Thank God for the United States.

Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.

Long may your admirable country dominate the world.

Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.

May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.

Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.

Thank God for the USA.

Happy 250th.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

Amazing representation of the LANICA (Nicaragua 🇳🇮) early 1970s livery originally flown on the Convair 880s. I remember flying those smoky and fast jets in the early 1970s. Thanks to @whatifaviation for the great work

🔵⚪️ Our former hometown airline, **Independence Air**, showing off their Bombardier CRJ-200ER **N684BR** on static display at the cargo ramp at Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD 🇺🇸) during #DullesDay on 01 October 2005.

Can’t believe this was almost **21 years ago** already! 👴✈️

Independence Air brought so much color and local pride to Dulles back in the day. Nostalgia hits hard seeing these old shots.

Who else flew with them or attended Dulles Day events? Share your stories in the comments — would love to hear them!
