HN 提问:美国今天迎来 250 周年。这对你意味着什么?

我想,鉴于独立宣言发表以来已经过了**二百五十周年**,我应该发一篇“Ask HN”帖子。
这个网站上很多人关心的事情,很大一部分都诞生于美国:晶体管、互联网、那种“车库里的两个人就能挑战企业巨头”的理念(或说法)、风险投资支持的创业模式等等。而且,HN 社区的很多人都与这个地方有着个人联系——包括我自己在内的移民,他们将职业生涯押注在美国的学位和签证抽签上;在这里创业的公民;以及每天为美国公司工作(或与美国公司竞争)的海外人士。
所以,在二百五十周年之际,我想知道美国对你个人来说意味着什么。以下是一些引导性问题:
如果你是移民:是什么吸引你来到这里?这里的经历是否如你所愿?
如果你出生在美国:你希望国家在三百周年时是什么样子?
如果你离开了,或者从未选择来这里:你看到了什么,而我们其他人可能错过了什么?
最后,你对美国最**浪漫**的憧憬是什么,你认为值得分享?
祝 HN 独立日快乐!

Figured I'd post this Ask HN given the <i>semiquincentennial</i> celebration since the Declaration of Independence.<p>A surprising amount of what this site cares about grew up here in the US: the transistor, the internet, the idea (or the trope) that two people in a garage can take on corporate behemoths, the venture-backed startup model, etc. And a lot of HN has a personal stake in the place -- immigrants (me included) who bet their careers on a US grad degree and a visa lottery, citizens who built companies here, people abroad who work for (or compete with) American firms every day.<p>So on the 250th, I'm curious what America means to you, personally. Some prompts:<p>If you immigrated: what pulled you here, and has it held up?
If you were born here: what do you hope the country looks like at 300?
If you left, or chose never to come: what did you see that the rest of us might be missing?<p>Finally, what the most <i>romantic</i> ideal you have of America that you think would be worth sharing?<p>Happy 4th of July, HN!
