if they don't "feel" it. . .it's because they are lazy and have taken it for granted for so long that they do not have a clue how good they have it. . .most americans wouldn't last five minutes in any other country. . .most of the "rights" that they enjoy everyday are actually only "privileges". . .that they would not have anywhere else but here. . .

i think you have a skewed view of the rest of the world

you're right when you say the average american wouldn't last long in some of these other countries around the world.........but you're wrong on the reason why.
 
All nations are "cultural ignorant" (i.e. ethnocentrically) biased. A ton of studies have been done on it. Only America gets the bad news in the press because liberals hate capitalism. Doesn't matter anyway, China is the new king. It is just a matter of time.

Americans think its only Americans on the internet LOL


Well it certainly isnt Canadians.. considering there are approximately 35 million of you.. and only a few million of those having access to the internet, its not like you're making a real impact.



Its funny how ignorant some of you are being when it comes to Americas cultural impact on the rest of the world.. its like ignoring the elephant standing in your living room.

Ive been from one side of the world to the other.. lived in shitholes that some of you couldnt fathom.. and EVERY FUCKING PLACE Ive been has hints of America .. not Canada or England or any of the other places some of you call home


so before you go whining about how insignificant you "think" we are.. or how arrogant we are.. get out of your fucking yard, town, province, country.. etc..

and wake up to the fact that we touch EVERYTHING we impact EVERYTHING.

We have good reason for our "arrogance"...

(BTW Heavy Duty.. this post wasnt aimed at you.. I just happened to quote your previous post) :)

aahhh. . .i'm just pot stirrin' at this point. . .i think there are a lot of people out there that despise the u.s. . .and, although i understand their theories, ideas, fears, etc. . .most people in the u.s. are just like me. . .i work my ass off, i take care of my family, i do little or no harm to other people and/or my surroundings and, mostly, i just want to be left the fuck alone. . .champagne only comes from a certain region in france? fine. parmesan cheese only comes from a certain region in italy? fine. while i'm a big fan of the parm, i couldn't give two shits about champagne. . .and i don't really give a rat's ass what you call either of them. . .keep your culture. . .i'm goin' to bed. . .so i can get up and do it again. . .oh. . .and no matter where you're from. . .if you like like drinking beer and roasting hotdogs on a stick around an open fire, i'll be in my back yard sitting by my fire pit with a few of my cronies on quite a few saturday nights this spring/summer/fall. . .stop by and take a load off. . .but check your friggin' culture at the door. . .
 
Milo I don't think the question was how culturally pervasive is America. As there is no question Amercan culture has touched the rest of the world perfect example of that is McDonalds pretty much every where and Coke those are two piece of American culture. I believe it is how arrogant it is meaning most Americans think a trip to McDonalds is superior to say an authentic sushi bar in Japan.
