America has plenty of problems. But for July 4, Jim and Mike have a simpler message: America still rocks. The Axios co-founders go Behind the Curtain to explain why Americans are living through one of the greatest moments in U.S. and human history, even as patriotism falls, trust erodes and pessimism dominates the national mood. They discuss the gap between how America feels and what the country still gets right: freedom, entrepreneurship, innovation, democracy, capitalism, energy, military strength and the everyday decency of normal people. The bottom line: America is imperfect, noisy and often frustrating. But it is also young, resilient and still full of possibility.
