And you better slay for your multilingualism, but your reasons for hating America are...well...weak. It's just a bunch of generalizations. The only thing I can agree with if the censorship of television and radio.

Yes, and the rules and regulations of the US, at least many states, give people much more liberty.

So which country is free-er?

Like I said, it depends on your definition of freedom. I would not like to live in NZ because I would not feel free. You on the other hand would be fine with it.

Preach sis.
And let's talk about the recent huge controversy here in Europe. Turns out US government has been spying on all the European countries. They even spied on the German chancellor like European Union is gonna sue their asses.

I've never heard Avril, Nelly, Beiber, or even Drake (though yes, has mentioned it in interviews) ever rep Canada on a wide scale. Do they name drop Canada or it's cities in any of their songs? Do international audiences view them as Canadian or American artists?

The world is now in a more competitive phase where US exports are shrinking by the day while other countries (again like China) growing a lot. Unless the US government gets their **** together, this phase will continue to totally flat out the US in a short period of time.

No.
You see the reason why China is growing is because of America. China pegs is currency to American dollars like nearly the rest of the world. They do this so Americans can buy their exports. They invest billions into America. China would literally collapse if America just vanished.
The US still is on top. Yeah they may not be top dog in manufacturing consent products they still manufacture hard goods like airplanes. Thy also are the undesired leaders in the tech, science, and medical industry. The US invests more money into science than any other. And per capita is crap. Any economics person with a college education knows that income equality tells a much different story.

We tried to let everyone else sort out the mess with some material help, but the lessors couldn't do it.

America gets people angry for sure. You can't be proud of your country or say anything nice because you're arrogant. Other countries love to push stereotypes of the American. But little do they know they're doing the same exact thing.
So drink your Coke, watch your American film, listen to your American music, and surf your American Google or social network while using your American computer software.

Japan is still very much aligned with America & our policies tho so its in no way a real threat and the only other real threat is Iran but that's military not economical ****if you ignore the real reasons america would **** with Iran.
China might be growing but like i said two pages ago its no where near ready to touch america it's economy would tank without us buying damn near everything they make which is why they're so willing to keep leaning us money we both depend on each other too much to make waves in anyway.
America is going no where because there is literally no other country on this planet that is ready or willing to take up the responsibilities that come with being the hegemon. The world doesn't trust China, Japan don't want, India is China 50 years ago, North Korea and the middle east has got it's own ****ing drama.

Your case is what, again? The things that Americans have created/founded outweighs all of their ****** systems and things they've done? When that's not the point of why people hate them in the first place?
And I can't at you not even using Thomas Edison as an example (he invented the light bulb, I'm not sure how much information you know).
