Freakonomics U.S. motto contest

The Freakonomics blog recently ran a contest asking for a new six-word motto for the U.S., and after receiving 1,200+ comments, they narrowed it down to five finalists: (1) "The Most Gentle Empire So Far" (2) "You Should See the Other Guy" (3) "Caution! Experiment in Progress Since 1776" (4) "Just Like Canada, With Better Bacon" and (5) "Our Worst Critics Prefer to Stay". Voting is open for 48 hours... I voted for #1.
