When you see the stars n stripes flag now , what is the first thing you associate it with ?

USA. I confess for all the faults, I would rather the USA had dominated world politics in my lifetime than China or Russia. If I had my choice I would hand the keys to Norway, Finland or New Zealand (although Ardern has stepped down). Not to my own country of Australia, either. Rupert Murdoch poisoned our political air as he did UK and US.
