Patriotism Still Matters

Yes Patriotism still matters because you are showing honor to your nation and the troops who fought and died to keep you safe. If you have no patriotism you probably wouldn’t how you life change and what happen to your nation. Having patriotism show that love and respect everything your nation stand for, and will fight to protect your culture and everything that make it. Being willing to risk everything for your country; that can ultimately be defined as patriotism.   Wars cause the loss of many men and women.   Families, parents, husbands, wives, and children, who might never see that person again.   It has been proven throughout the centuries that one man can do great things.   Individuals going on to gain the support of millions, build empires whether economical or political, and Aid in technology advances that have and are still taking place.   As for throwing it all away, it could be more properly described as “Defending your freedoms”.   Here in the United States, we have many things that people in foreign countries do not, and we take many of them for granted.   Think of the wars this nation has been through, and think of what would have happened if nobody had gone to serve our country when it came time to do so.   We might still be a feather in Great Britain’s hat, paying our daily tribute to Hitler, or serving Allah. If it was not for the troops who sacrifice there life at war to defend this nation we would be here.
