Non US citizens only. Your opinion about the United States (asked by an American).?

Question

Dispite what it seems sometimes, we do care what the world's perception of us is. I'd like your thoughts.

Answer 1

Personally, as a non-US citizen for the last 13 years I think the United State is a great country to live with lots of opportunities. You can make it big here in the State if you really want to. Strong economy, great education, best healthcare (if you can afford it)The majority of people are very polite, educated, and friendly. It is almost a perfect place on earth to live if the we are United as the name of this country meant to be, The United State of America. I used "WE" in the previous sentence even though I am not a US citizen yet, I have one year to wait, and I can't wait. Yes, I think if we are united this country will be a lot stronger.
Freedom. No question about it. This is how we spell the word United State: F.R.E.E.D.O.M, as the matter of fact I think we have more freedom than we need, we can even curse or make fun of the President of the United State of America without getting into any problem whatsoever!!! that is something. If I did that to the President of the country I came from, my whole family would be executed.
Now, Respectfulness from kids to their parents and to teachers is a little disappointed, I'm not saying all kids and teenagers are like that but 5 out of 10 families I know are in this category and 5 out of 10 is a lot (to me). This problem may related to Freedom, their kid know their rights and freedom they over-use it. Maybe.
Well, those are some of my opinion about the country I love and have been living in. I hope that I did not offend anyone here, those are just my own thoughts.

Answer 2

There are many clever Americans, however i suppose there are extra dull ones. I suppose of redneck,trailer trash,backwoods hillbillies.I suppose of ghettos wherein there is a crackhouse each and every 50 yards.I suppose of huge gated groups wherein wealthy white folks disguise from all of the "others".I've pushed within the states earlier than and i could not think one of the vital nasty residences folks lived in,however had a 50k auto sitting within the driveway. I do not imply to place America down considering the fact that i do know there are plenty of rough operating folks there however that is what i suppose. I'm from Canada and that i reside correct alongside the boarder,my condominium is approximately a one million mile from it I reside in a the town of forty 000 wherein you'll stroll the streets within the core of the night time adequately,infrequently any crime or racism. I have met many Americans and all had been very pleasant,I'm simply stereo-typing you men, however it is real approximately the crappy residences and the pleasant vehicles, i do not get it.

Answer 3

Greatest country on Earth.

The USA is the most generous, most advanced, principle hope for a positive future for the world.

I am thankful that no other country is the world's superpower, what a horrible fate for the world were that so! It is lonely at the top, so try to avoid the arrogance that can go with great power.

My country is merely a shadow of what we could be.

Canada (still the second best though.)

Answer 4

I detest your government, education system, CIA, military, and claiming you invented the pizza and hamburger. However, like any other race of peoples, the citizens are a diverse range of people, some intelligent, most thick as pig sh*t (due to poor propagandist education system and TV/Media), some good, some truly heinous. Do not make the mistake that disgust and hatred for America and Americanism translates into hatred of Americans. Americans are usually rather too loud (especially when showing their ignorance) and a bit gauche for European tastes, but we accept that, just as the French accept the fact that the English are smug and pompous, etc.

Answer 5

general oz view on the USA: rude, arrogant, ill educated, over sized, to busy trying to be world police rather than addressing the real issues in your own back yard. world leaders in housing serial killers, leaders in percentages of diagnosed mental disorders, way to gun happy, ignorant to geography history and understanding of the commonwealth, bullies, hate filled, if they cared about the world they'd vote, self proclaimed heroes, the loudest most offensive tourists to our country.

Answer 6

Typical whiny liberal - worried about the world opinion of the USA. I don't care what non-US citizens think about our President, our Country, or our right to defend our country and our citizens.
