Would'nt it be great if all the countries was just like America?

Question

I mean come on, think about it. We would have everything in common, no hatred, have brilliant white teeth and talk gibberish. Be so superficial but trying to pretend that we are different. Go on Holidays to countires thats just like America. Its like you never stepped foot out of America. We would be 'Normal'. We would wear 'Normal' clothes. Have a 'Normal' culture. Be peaceful and love each other esp the 'President. Hmmm, now doesnt that just sound like a nightmare worse than elm street?

Answer 1

That is definitely worse than a Nightmare on Elm Street.

This is a good question thought because for those who are not receptive of anything "different" they might have a utopia as such in mind; however, they should stop and think about such a wish. What would we do with just America? There would be no diversity, nothing to challenge our own growth. Indeed, where would the adventure be?

Answer 2

Sure would. Then all the women would know how great it was to work for below poverty wages even though they have a higher education. Or even the joy of working two and even three jobs so they can make ends meet! Go on holidays?????What's that? I haven't been ABLE to afford to go anywhere. They would also know what it's like to freeze in the winter cause they don't have enough $ left to pay the outrageous heating bills. I also know women who work who don't have enough $ left to buy themselves enough food. Thank God I have 3 small gardens that I grow vegs in to give them. I just tell them to take what they need with out asking! I wonder if the politicians in other countries vote themselves massive pay raises and let the people who pay THEIR wages go without raising their minimum wage in 10 years?

Answer 3

This issue- American cultural exports, and cultural homogeneity- has been an issue since the war.

Some states, such as the French, have chosed to subsidise national cultural industries, others simply accepted what they thought was inevitable, and allow American exports to flood their markets.

The world is shirking, and global markets now exist, so it is difficult to know what can be done to ensure variety and diversity accross the world, excpt, on a private level, to ensure that one chooses the local and idiosyncratic over the bland and mass marketed.

Answer 4

Im sure all the great empires of the past felt this way.. Look at them. where are they now? Greed, and Vanity got them down.. America wont last forever. And who claims that everyone else wants to be like America.. Some are just happy the way they are..

Answer 5

If ever country was like America then there would be a preemtive strike taking place every second of the day

Answer 6

I think it would be good but you can keep your civilian gun ownership. I can tell from your sarcasm that you want the rest of the world to exist as cultural museums for your amusement. Becoming more American is progressive to a great extent. We just don't need your guns and your evangelicals.

Answer 7

Sure, then we could call the earth Ameriworld.
This idea kind of failed in Iraq however.

Obviously a few people who answered, doesn't understand the concept of sarcasm.

Answer 8

That nightmare is inching closer to reality as more and more countries are becoming Americanized.

Answer 9

HECK NO!!! america is not the greatest as off people that live in it think... i think that if people would have never step foot in America.. then we would all be normal

Answer 10

I wish everywhere was like America. How could anyone say this country sucks? They're just jealous.
