Luck has nothing to do with it.  Life gives you what you are willing to fight for....and everyone knows we will fight for anything..hahah

Because americans are great at placing the blame on someone else's shoulders.

people are idiots. The act more like lottery winners than wage earners. Why do people who make just above poverty level income dress like they are worth a million? Why do people who work at fast food restaurants wear tons of gold jewelery? Why do 90 year old people go to casinos hoping to hit it big? Why do many americans spend $5 dollars for one cup of coffee and complain about gas prices? why do americans......ad nauseum.

I agree with you. Americans think that we can boss around every one we please. We have a severe case of nationalism, and arrogance.

Who? Us? Well I never... Maybe because we think we are better. I don't because I think all people from all countries are cool. I was in the US Navy for ten years and met plenty of people from around the world. They all seem to have the same basic wants and needs and most are good people. I hope that you find more good Americans than bad because most of us are very good people. Sorry for the few bad ones you have run into. I am from Fort Worth, Texas and I promise that most Americans are not like that.\n\nSincerely,\nTerry S

PEOPLE IMITATE THINGS THEY ADMIRE. THE AMERICAN MARKETING EMPIRE REACHES AROUND THE WORLD AND INFLUENCES ALL NATIONS IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. HAVING THE GUTS TO TAKE CHANCES AND MUDDLE THROUGH THE ROUGH SPOTS IS ALMOST INBRED IN EACH AMERICAN.  SOMETIMES THEY SUPPRESS THE DRIVE WITHIN THEM BUT IT IS STILL THERE. EUROPEANS SUFFERED THRU THE CENTURIES OF SERFDOM AND SUBJUGATION  UNDER ROYALTY AND CHURCH POWERS.   AMERICANS GREW UP FREE TO TRAVERSE CLASSES THRU THEIR INITIATE.

Americans love themselves the most. We are a most selfish group of people.  So it could be any of the things you have mentioned.  We are the fattest, laziest, most entertained group of people in history.
