What do you like the most about America?

Post Reply New Topic

America has many good bands to listen and many books about AS.

It's home.

How it seems amazingly colourful in personality wise.

I can be a jerk and noone acts like I'm doing anything wrong.

FREEDOM

Diffrent Cultures and some of the Music and other lands

I've heard similar things about Denmark from ex-patriots.

Regarding your second paragraph - while a lot of that is true for a large portion of the country, all of those things are solved in nyc. It's a pretty savvy place that's very tolerant culturally and doesn't seem to have the superpower arrogance. you don't need a car there, you can be any religion you want (openly), and there are tons, of holidays there and the workweek is generally 35 hours rather than the 40 of the rest of the country.

And regarding superpower arrogance, I hope you don't feel that we're all like that. That impression and in some cases belief (on the part of individual Americans) is I think, the result of propaganda and not everyone has bought it. There are lots of really great people here.

The flag.

I don't.

I forgot to say what I like - southern home cooking. Not Cajun so much, but food from the southeast. Corn pudding, collards, buttermilk biscuits, etc.

I love America. Lots of people think America is great because they lived here their whole lives.. The American health care is the best in the world if you are rich & do not have any preexisting conditions that could exclude you from instance coverage. People do NOT need education to be successful in America either because some of the most successful people here have got where they wer simply because of their families or other connections. America is very concerned about the safety of others witch is why we went to Iraq so we could protect the world from weapons of mass destruction. America also believes in 2nd chances like when we reelected George W Bush. America also believes in protecting others from their own mistakes like bailing out the auto industry, the mortgage lenders & other institutions. America is the best country ever witch is why we should be the only country to have nuclear missiles

I like the fact that here in America, people are encouraged to be individuals (even though that doesn't stop a lot of people from following trends...) I also like having Freedom of Speech.

That it's so far away from me

Word. Aspergers is so damn far it's not even accessible on foot.

I love the interstates and the consistency of what to expect when you travel across the country. It is different and the same all at once.

That women are actually allowed and encouraged to have a life of their own outside of having babies. Universities that offer a variety of culture among the faculty and students. I've learned so many fascinating things about the world from my professor who was born in France. I'll come back if I think of any more.

How many days off work a year do people actualy have?



Yes, I know that. I have an American friend here in the UK who is very accepting and not remotely arrogant.
