Becasue we do! HA! Just kidding. I think Americans have a STRONG sense of pride in their country. I think we are adamant about patriotism, and being loyal to our flag and our history. WE are fierceful about respecting those who died for our freedoms...it was a hard, long fight, and many died. We worked hard to be as free as we are, and lots of people gave the ultimate sacrifice....we respect that and are in fact entitled because of it. Not to mention, we are the world's only remaining "superpower". This sort of gives us an advantage in this world, and we can't help but be just a tad bit arrogant about that.

Katie, I would think that people of all countries have that same sense of entitlement and believe they know better than any other group. Of course some are more modest than others, but it is that sense of pride that one has to have, isn't it?
Would you think YOUR country was pitiful, the less successful country in the world, one that reeks of disgust that you can't wait to get out of? Even if this was so, would you truly admit it?

The care given at emergency rooms isn't "unfastened medical". Its unfastened "emergency centers". maximum international locations are have extra strict regulations on immigration. Heres a theory however, perhaps you're able to do away with NAFTA and circulate after US businesses finding for low cost hard artwork who wont ***** approximately residing standards or working situations. Thats the reason a majority of unlawful immigrants are here.

Because we do know better...
Just kidding.
Do we act like that?
You know what I think?
I think everyone just about thinks they are smarter than the next person.
We as Americans (US Citizens) In my opinion- have it in our head that ours is the greatest country there is. We are wealthy, powerful, independent, huge (in comparison to some others), proud, diverse and we have a superiority complex, so maybe allot of us act it out.
Read below, this is better...
Possibly, other countries think we are better so they just assume we think that way about ourselves- yeah, I think that's it! ;)
