People of the world, lets face the facts: Most "Americans" are your saviors.
Why do ?Americans? feel as though they are personal world saviors because they pay taxes? Or because they were born into wealth, they must elaborate on all the world?s shortcomings. I was born into low-income, quickly my family rose into a more suburban, middle-class lifestyle. I have no idea what being born into poverty would be like; therefore, I shut my mouth.
?Americans? seem to think impoverished Africans are ?lazy? and deserve what they get. Even when our own are in need (New Orleans), we seem to judge how different it would be if we were in the same situation; of course you can always know how you would react if you were born into poverty, had no education and a category 4 hurricane swept your little trailer away.
So insightful!
The world did not begin with ?America,? nor will it continue on revolving around ?America.? Read a little history and you will see that the writing is on the wall.
I have said this before, ?Americans? should not be allowed to babble on (nor vote) on world issues unless they have stamps on their passport that are more extensive than Cabo. Just because you have stayed at a resort in Puerto Vallarta, it doesn?t mean you have ?seen the world.? Reading books on other places will only get you so far. Living in Idaho all your life as a Republican really doesn?t justify some esoteric knowledge that all others across our vast oceans are not privileged with. Just because your neighbor is "half-Pakistani" and you let him borrow your lawnmower once, it doesn't make you cultured. Your parents paying for you college education or you deferring government education loans your whole life doesn?t deem you ?successful.?
And remember, YOU didn't free anyone in Iraq or Vietnam unless YOU put on some boots and strapped an automatic weapon to your shoulder.
So the next time ?Americans? get the urge to babble on about the world, they should book a flight and go see all of America. This includes: Chile, Peru, Brazil, Argentina?etc.
I love living in The United States, I just don?t understand how so many people essentially are aloof to where they stand.
That was my rant for the day, carry on.
