Corporate rule? Izaak Hane
America is the greatest country in the world. Why would you want to live anywhere else?
Maybe to experience another culture. Maybe to do some traveling. Maybe for work.
Maybe to escape the hordes of morons in this country who don’t know anything about the world, and yet insist on characterizing it as bug-infested, crime-ridden and moments away from a coup.
You all can slave away the rest of your lives to afford your poorly made, vinyl-sided house in a featureless subdivision, fighting it out with everyone else to prove how much you have and just how good of a consumer you are.

I’ll be sitting on my porch with my feet up, a drink in hand, listening to the sounds of nature and enjoying the simple life.
I’d love this country if it weren’t populated with total idiots…

I totally agree. It’s so sad and maddening to see Americans hating on their own country like it never helped them out in one single way. It’s so contradictory too, when they seem to think that every other nation is absolutely perfect or whatever (right…) and then shun their own. Being opposed to certain aspects is one thing, but completely writing it off is another. Open your eyes people, and have at least a little gratitude and pride for the place you came from.

Ah, now this totally rings true and shows with the ones that actually do travel… ah the constant bragging of whats at home, but no enjoyment with the two weeks of vacation in a yr for the majority… Good piece!

Jeesh.
That’s a pretty hefty generalization. It makes me wonder if the author has actually ever seen America, the grit and backbone of America, not to be confused with the kind seen off of Interstates and on business trips. America is a huge country, and so is it’s population and amounts of diversity in lifestyles and viewpoints. From someone who knows America like a secondary paternal figure, I can tell you a considerable amount of the population is not made up of ” hordes of morons… who don’t know anything about the world.”
Americans aren’t perfect (far from it), but I don’t think this blind hostility helps us any↵ -
I’m an American. I work in the construction industry in all corners of the world. I was born in the U.S. and have traveled extensively.
I think the author is a very young man and has much to learn. Calling Americans ‘total idiots’ is beyond the pale.
I feel I should be insulted, but I’ll allow this gaffe on the basis of his immaturity and inexperience. Perhaps he’s just begun traveling.
Anti-Americanism exists everywhere and I refuse to suffer it. When people start on Anti-American rants, I always ask them, “if not America, who do you want to be friends with? Russia? China? ” The question invariably causes some reflection to those who hate America.
The United Sates is great nation and we Americans are not without manifold faults. But we are not idiots.
Think about the world without the United States. Most of Europe would be speaking Russian now if not for the U.S. South Korea would not exist.
How did this article pass muster?

Perhaps the Russian and Chinese governments “hate” America, but the people do not. I’m definitely seeing a bias that assumes the American form of government is the “right” form of government. Perhaps you should practice some of what you preach and learn more about the people in the nations you feel our America’s enemies?

Nassau, where is the preaching you write about? Did I comment as to the superiority of the US form of government or its suitability for other nations?
I’ve lived abroad for very many years on four different continents. How much more experience do you do you think I need to “learn more about the people in the nations you feel our (sic) America’s enemies?”
Regarding the Russian people and their attitudes regarding Americans, I’ll have to ask my Russian wife how she feels about me and my country.
