Yes, american culture has choosen how to live life. Life is all about having a good time. Morals, principles, ethics, and intergrity are not valued in american life, but instead what is valued in american life is making money, having a lot of sex, and any hedonistic activities. Character is not relevant privately, only publicly for the intent of making money and protecting a public image that you are good, when privately you are bad. Being bad is rewarded, cheating is rewarded, having friends to give you breaks and handouts and favors is good, doing things the hard way is not pursued but laughed at and shunned. This is the american way, short cuts, law breaking, just don't get caught and that is the way!

Now hang on there mister!
hedonistic??? Dang....lemme look that up.
hedonistic
Aadjective
1 hedonic, hedonistic, epicurean
devoted to pleasure; "a hedonic thrill"; "lives of unending hedonistic delight"; "epicurean pleasures"
OK you got me. That's me all over. But it's a hard life! You got any idea how hard it is to type with one hand?
And I thought being rewarded for being bad and cheating are traits of those darn Arabs! How'd you get them confused with us?
Me thinks that you are one of the unproductive percentage of our population that feel you should be rewarded for being lazy. Correct?
But the rest of your comments are nonsense! I only have 5 sex partners, that's not that many.

You must be severely myopic. Since there are approximately 350 million citizens of the United States (I assume you did not intend to include Canada, Central America or South America in your statement) it is safe to assume your comment cannot apply to all of them. It is true most of us enjoy having money to provide us with the things that enhance our life but you may also want to think about how we got to be the great, sovereign nation we are. It wasn't through "having a lot of sex" and "hedonistic activities." It was through a great deal of hard work, both physically and intellectually. It sounds to me like someone is a little jealous....

Wow you are sure sterotyping a entire country! Please open your mind in all society there are good and bad. Not all WHITE PEOPLE have bad morals or ethics I was raised to believe hard work and pride in your work was the American way not cheating stealing and lying those are sins. My friends and associates all have the same morals and ethics I was raised with maybe you just met a bad group

Considering America isn't just made up of White People, what the hell is you rambling post about? Obviously, you're a possible racist towards whites (thanks for having us on your mind so much) and you don't get laid enough. I'm sorry to hear this. I think I'll go back to work to earn more money and then I'll get me some this afternoon. Thanks for being interested in our lifestyles

Wow, you are a very miserable soul! And a racist one too! This has nothing to do with business and finance, and everything to do with you venting your racist remarks which is not acceptable. It's people like you who cause wars.

If it's WHITE PEOPLE who have many sex partners, why is it that 90% of people on welfare are black women, most of which are pregnant. Don't shoot the messenger, those are the facts.
What about black hip hop performers, who shoot each other, have a harem of women and use drugs?
Immorality and greed is not limited to WHITE PEOPLE, it is practiced by all colors and creeds.
