J. Brown,
You wrote,[...considering our freedoms a matter of {luck} or a {better condition} than those elsewhere can tend ro make residents of other countries feel put down...].
Could you clarify or identify the following? If you could, then I could have a better understanding of your post and be beter able to respond accordingly.
A.Are you saying that there are people that consider our freedoms [...a matter of {luck}...]? If so, could you identify who those people are? If you could , then I could respond accordingly.
B. Could you clarify what you are referring to as a [... better condition...]? If you could, then I could respond accordingly.
C. Are you saying that [{our} freedom] that you referr to, to be the freedom established by the United States Constitution and its ammendments that protect the minority from a tyrannical majority, which has been referred to as [the bill of rights]? Or are you referring to some other country(s)? If you are referring to the U.S.A, then could you clarify the use of the word, {luck} in your statement as to what you use to conclude that the freedoms established in the U.S.A. were a result of {luck}, and not a result of protest and revolution by people that placed freedom above other things, and as a result died to have those freedoms established, that led to the establishment of the constitution ?
