Why do Americans hate America?

Question

I'm sick of it I can't take it anymore. If you don't like it eather try to fix it or leave.

Why do Americans have to pride in there country and think they have no controll over it. We do still hold elections we also have the freedom of speach. If your don't like it try to change it and stop complaining about it. What ever happened to american values and belifes as a culture. We can't have our cake and eat it to. Be pround to be an American we are our Country. We are what we have made of it. And if we don't like it we need to start trying to change it. With the kind of government we have we can do that.

Answer 1

because we Americans have a attitude That thee world or our government owes us something ,other then what our constitution calls for. It seems that the so called baby boomers forgot to raise there kids with morals or any other behavior that would benefit all. And to be honest our children from the 70' on are ignorant and uneducated. and we continue to carry on to thus day. Look at or kids they are so far behind the rest of the world they cant compete out in the job market so they want hand out and blame others for there lack of education not them self's for being lazy. I speak from experience I failed to get a good education choosing to party ins-ted. Out of four kid's,only one completed high school now they are having a tough time living in the real world. And one of our biggest problems is kids having kids so they less of a chance to become=me successful.

Thanks for th question.

Answer 2

Non Americans like me keep wondering about it.No,it can't be brushed aside with freedom of expression or speech or some such thing.I think,the present generation have inherited too good a life without under going any ordeals or sufferings and have developed a kind of habit to remain dis satisfied ,no matter how good they get.I have hardly ever come across an American who has a kind word their Government ,specially their President.People in third world countries believe America is a Heaven on earth.What's the way out?

Answer 3

I don't hate America.
I love America. It is a beautiful country.
I hate AmericanS.
I do vote. I will continue to vote even though it doesn't matter because the whole system is a big fraud. Your post is just another example of the gross under education we educated Americans are subjected to live with. American values? This country is founded on mass genocide. Everything I love about this country is being stripped bare and there is NOTHING I can do about it. I don't have millions of dollars to pay off the Senate or the House or the President.
And to add to my frustration my 'freedom of speech' as you so eloquently misspelled, is extremely limited when people tell me if I don't like the way the country I was born in is run I should leave. I do have an obligation to participate in my government, and they seem to be obligated to screw me in every way they can.

I am proud to be a living being on the planet earth. Thanks to American pride and over-consumption that may be a shorter lived existence than I had hoped for in my youth.

Answer 5

It's easier to be with the majority than against it. At least they can pretend they're just like the rest of us!

Answer 6

90% of all of us want the same things; good schools, lower taxes, etc. It's the politicians that keep us snarling at each other, otherwise they wouldn't have jobs.
