43. I don't know about that...
Compared to most of this world's present and past countries, the US is very Liberal.

Compared to countries in the past, perhaps. Compared to countries presently, though, I don't think so. Two of my grown children live outside the country and when we visit them we find that most of the people we meet are far more to the left than liberals here in the U.S. That may be a generational thing, since we are meeting friends of the kids', but still... the younger generation outside of this country seems very thoughtful and liberal. And, a friend of mine (my age) who was born in Germany and has lived in countries of Europe, Africa, and Asia, quite often just rolls her eyes and sighs "only in America!"
