why do us americans believe our culture is superior all others?

Question

we have more rapes and murders and disease and america shows that we also have nomoral ethics or ability to control our materialistic greed and desire, no wonder most countrys dont wont our way of life assimilated in to theres.

Answer 1

Very good question, at first sight.
I completely agree with you!!!

But then, is it all Americans?
Or just the ones that export American values to the rest of the world?
Like your clownish leaders?
And they create a common disgust all over the world?

And all those ”good” Americans who respect moral, and are educated, AND DID NOT VOTE for Dubya are simply the victims of the others???
Is that so???
Americans REPENT while the going is good!!!

Stephanie W, you are living proof of Ton1ishere’s allegations!!!

You write: ”I would like to point out that we have some of the best medical care available. I am living proof. Why else would people come from OTHER countries to get care over here? You can't say we are materialistic and greedy either.”

Thank you for backing me up! In my country we have at least as excellent medical care as you do, and A LOT CHEAPER. And we don’t like to talk about it. We are grateful!

Answer 2

Your question lacks facts. What do you base these opinions on? I would like to point out that we have some of the best medical care available. I am living proof. Why else would people come from OTHER countries to get care over here? You can't say we are materialistic and greedy either. Most of us buy things we NEED, not necessarily what we WANT. We also give generous amounts to charity because we are fully aware that a certain percentage of the population is not as well off as others. America gives humanitarian aid to countries all over the world, but it seems to me that we don't even get a "thank you" for it.

I think you need to check your facts, as you have stated them. And by the way, it's Christmas for crying out loud. Can't you keep your inflammatory opinions to yourself for at least ONE day? Also, there's a spell checker up there. Use it.

Answer 3

The American culture is every culture in the world blended together, in that sense it is superior.

But you need some common sense pounded in to your head
More in what way?

Muslim countries have far far more rapes and sodomy of children, they just cover them up and pretend there "religion" is the only one.

Materialistic greed has driven every great invention in the last 200 years. Before it was military, do you want to revert back?

Diseases, in the US are you smoking crack? African countries have the highest disease rates in the world.

Murders are at the highest in Africa too, it's call genocide.

you need to pay a little, wait a lot more attention to the world around you.

The US has the highest charity rate in the world. Americans give more then anyone else especially when it is calculated as a percentage of their income.

Yes the US has it's problems but at least we admit them and publish them, air them for the world to see, so we can work in them. We don't cover them up like most 3rd world countries or are so pretentious like Europe who's "cultural" arrogance blinds them to their own problems so they point fingers at everyone else.

Answer 4

Not just we Americans, all people in other nations are the same.
can you believe most other countries think Americans are stupid? while we think we are smarter than other non-hot dog eaters.
Sad as it is, but the bright side is we do have a huge number bright people in our population, not your regular southern pick-up car drivers though.

We will be OK, the track record says so. We, however, need to keep working harder because this technology stuff is now in the hands of many many other nations and the future superiority may not necessay come form Lockkey-Martin anymore.

Answer 5

I don't think we have a particularly superior attitude as part of our culture. Every culture must believe they are superior, or the culture would cease to exist! However, we do have a very powerful industrial complex that has a tremendous motivation to export a very un-authentic and contrived American-corporate culture, so that American consumer goods can be welcomed and exported. But it seems inevitable that China will overtake us in this respect, if they haven't already.

Answer 6

well first of all it is wrong to think that ur race or country is better than anothers, even God is not partial and does not favor a particular race/country. in anycase americans do have some sort of authority over the world since U.S is the world power and is dominant economically and millitary. but we must understand that we learn from each other.

Answer 7

What culture?...but most of the US is still better than most every where else... least of the 15 countries I have been in. the closest second is probably Israel. but even they have changed a lot since i was there.... the italians are a wild and crazy bunch..but the treated me great and I would not hesitate to go there and even to live there... probably north of Rome and in small town.... those Sisilians are too hot for me...those women there are fine but way to wild even in my prime.they were to hot to handle.

Answer 8

Because the citizens of every country think their country is better than any other. Even though every country in the world has the same problems.

Answer 9

Well, we don't execute women for being the victim of rape, as many Islamic countries do.

We don;t kill teachers (like the taliban does) for teaching the truth

Africa is far worse as far as diseases go (AIDS is out of control there).

If you are going to make a statement like that, make certain you are sure of all of your facts

Answer 10

I didn't say America was superior to others. Don't compare.
