americans only?why do you think your country is so smart while there are places look like a third world?

Answer 1

Those places are where people from the third world live.

Answer 2

I was borne in the US, lived in Miami-Florida for seven years, before that, in south America and I recently move out of Florida for good to the UK(London), and now, I look back to those 7 years, and even though I did my professional career there, I feel, they were the 7 worst years of my live (social wise), because of this capitalistic systems I did not have many friends, everybody was busy, did not have a real girlfriend cause I did not have money to show and people saw me like I was a rat because I was poor “the more you have, the better you are” and also in the US if you can only pursue a university degree when you come from a very wealthy family or live in debt for the rest of your life and if you become sick, you either have to have an insurance (very expensive if not paid by employer) or live in debt for the rest of your live.



I think in the US, there is a strong culture to work but no culture to socialise with others, for example Drs see you as a number $ more than as a patient, I don’t want to generalise, but I think the US system (media and government) changes people into working machines and blocks their minds from what is outside, most of the people I met there think that the US is the best country in every single way, without even visiting other countries, well I don’t blame then , with the little time off we had in Florida as listed on linked below, there is not time to visit any other countries, and also only a very little amount of Americans have a passport. please see attachments below.



Well, something else, I realize when I was travelling around Europe and south America, I noticed that most of Americans did not make any effort to a least speak the most common or used word in other languages and expect everybody to speak English as once a girl from Chicago told me “we are leaving the globalisation so everybody needs to speak English”



In the other hand I think that economic wise US is great country , my parents are doing financially very well so is my brother and most of the people I know, but unfortunately all the money they make and have, cant not even be enjoyed. I truly respect you opinion but I think that WE as “Americans” should see the world equally, change our minds, not because we are richest and have the economical power we have the right to abuse others and impose our system, ethics and moral in other countries as they have their own and we should respect that.

Answer 3

A "country" cant be smart,its people can.I'm not sure what you are seeking in this post except to announce your anti-American sentiment to the world. So what else is new.It seems that USA bashing is a world sport,I look for it to become an Olympics class soon.I'm sure the whiners of France and all Europe will excel at it.After all they get so much practice.
Its best you worry about your own country and stop obsessing with America.We can always rise about anything that's happening here in our great nation.We always do.Maybe if we could keep all the third world people that are coming here by the millions,(seeking a better life)out then America can one day be as free,desirable and progressive as whatever country you are from.....Until then I will struggle by in my own
country,the best in the world,my USA.(driving my brand new car,living in my own beautiful home,actually drinking the water, being able to flush my toilet,buy any thing I can afford,go or not go to any church I want,vote for any one I choose,and protest and voice my views without fear.Yeah America is hell to live in.

Answer 4

What places are these?????? There are some run down neighborhoods here and there. But third world????I think not. Perhaps you should look into your own third world country...Which ever one it is you live in...

Answer 5

Can you list some of these places ?

Answer 6

I don't think America is especially smarter than other countries. Other industrial nations have places that look like the third world as well.

Perhaps, you are questioning our patriotism. Any citizen of any country can dislike or disagree with their government yet still be proud and protective of their home.

Answer 7

I just loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee America, we don't really have places that look like a third world and if you keep saying this we'll have to take it outside.
lol

Answer 8

We have very little that would qualify as looking like a third world country. Think about it.

Answer 9

Two possible answers: 1. Some people choose to live in that manner; this is their choice. 2. Americans know that it is possible to raise their standard of living with personal effort and outside help.

Answer 10

Your question doesn't make any sense. Countries can't be smart. And I don't know many people who think people here are smart. Our education system is a joke.
