Foreigners think that Americans have two main components to their culture: 1. Convenience and 2. Adolescence. Those two characteristics are so strong and difficult to overcome that are used again and again against you. I would love to see america growing up (psychological development from convenience to effort and from adolescence to adulthood) into a full grown adult mentality and not this victimhood and immature collective. Sheep’s to Lions. I know many of you are there . I suspect this rude awakening is part of your growing pains.
