This is cash density as seen from space. Only people who can afford to leave their lights on all night are visible. Notice also the lack of borders. That's because they mean nothing.

The map is a reminder that US politicians in fact, make decisions in the best interests of the corporations that they answer to.

The 'current' reason that everyone is frowning upon the US is this... An illiterate was re-elected by citizens who are more concerned about stopping the spread of homosexuality than they are alarmed by the fact that gw continues to send young americans to die. What was his reason again?

:1orglaugh Only people who can afford to leave their lights on at night are visible? Isn't that what lights are for in the first place? China has more lights than USA and Canada combined. You think the picture is accurate with the whole world at night time at once? :1orglaugh

I think I'm a bit stupid since I have no idea how your logic works...

Could you explain to me how you get ONE picture of the world, all at once. Say, day in india and night in the US.

Possible but the source of the pic is hosted on a Nepal website as humour and not from Nasa

a) The average person (in any country) can't comprehend policy beyond the headline found in their newspaper.

b) The US is dominant enough that it can make decisions in it's best interests without worldwide consent. That's a unique situation. We don't have to ratify stupid-ass treaties we don't really want to join but must as we need support to enter into some other organization (see Russia signing Kyoto to gain entry into the WTO). We can fight wars in multiple fronts sans any other support if need be. We are the only country on earth that can make our own decisions without fear of repurcussion. Don't like what we decided? Too fucking bad. What are you gonna do? Start a military campaign against us? Obviously not. Start a trade war with us? Good fucking luck. UN sanctions? LOL, without US support there is no UN. Boot us from the WTO or some other organization? Sure, the downside is that organization is no longer relevant. Ignore the U.S. entirely? Sure, you can do it... some countries have successfully done so for decades (Cuba, Libya) provided your prepared to watch your country evolve at a snail's pace relative to the rest of the world.

End result of b) is the U.S. doesn't always make decisions based on the lowest common denominator. It can set policy with worldwide effects based on it's own ideology... basically the only country that can do so. That breeds a natural resentment that in turn gets amplified by a) above. Citizens of other countries are completely mystified that US politicians elected by US citizens make decisions deemed in the best interests of the US rather than their own country.

Those who study policy can certainly understand US positions (Kyoto sucks for the US, terrorists are the only threat left to the US so we go perhaps overboard trying to exterminate it, etc.). They might not agree with US decisions but those who study policy aren't so ignorant as to believe the US is actually foolish.

By contrast those who study US policy by reading the 120 word column in their newspaper just conclude the US is arrogant, "dumb" and whatnot.

There's a shitload more of the latter compared to the former. End result is you see large chunks of the worldwide population naively believe the US is simply dumb and arrogant.

It'll be interesting to see what happens if the EU ever becomes a cohesive psuedo-government that approaches the impact of the US. I think it's quite possible in time, at which point Europe will get to enjoy some of this worldwide resentment and the Euros will say to themselves, just as US citizens do, "so what".

Good critique.

When will you simple minded idiots realize countries and continents need each other?

I wish i could be as simple minded as you...the brain capacity of fly. People like you have such easy lives. Too retarded to think, to retarded to do anything...just a simple, non complicated life. Not a single clue whats happening in the world and no urge to find out. Your world is your backyard and everything further than that is not your problem and youre not interested in it either.
Fox news brings you up to date with how many ragheads your military killed today and thats about all the info you need on an average afternoon.

You are America. Your country is build on people like you.

Sad obese simple minded illiterate narcistic racist red necks.

What the fuck are you talking about retard boy?

Are you telling me youre filtering all your non us traffic and redirect them so youre not making money from foreign surfers?

Please know your place, youre making money from Europeans.

Your argument is so flawed, i feel stupid explaining this to you.

Once again the US needs Europe and Europe needs the US. Please stop acting as if US is a stand alone continent who doesnt need help from any other country. Please show me you have some braincells at least. Right now i cant really give you the benefit of the doubt. Your comments really make you look border line retarded.

60% us 40% rest of the world. My business wouldn't die if I didn't get any US traffic. I would market my material differently, and in different languages.
Now I'm making money off americans since it's easy prey.

Would your signups cease if you stopped working with european webmasters, say a few big tgp owners?

Actually, citizens of other countries are completely mystified that US citizens elect politicians who lead them into debt, send their boys off to die in wars with insignificant countries, see porn as a threat almost as big as terrorism and singlehandedly manage to strongly divide the entire country.

Would not make a world of difference to me..

"I'm making money off americans since it's easy prey."

Thanks for proving my point..

Lol.
You have no grasp in reality.
I do it because I can, why wouldn't I? I'm only talking about paysites btw, I do have finnish-only projects going on that bring money.. but let's play I don't.

You don't have a point in your argument.
If you do, what is it?
I make my money from USA, boohoo? I honestly don't understand if you have a point. If you have a sure way of making money from chinese surfers, wouldn't you use the opportunity? Would that make you dependant on china?

Yeah, but say you'd make money from chinese, but they'd pay you in chinese currency. Wouldn't it piss you off if the value of their money went down?

Im smart enough to know youre just inbred trailer trash and that there actually are smart people in America. Just too bad i dont meet them often. Especially after the last elections im really starting to wonder about the iq of the average American. People like you dont make that look much better.

Lol. But their currency would suck, and that'd piss you off.

I'm not calling anyone anything, but it's a fact that USD is in the shitter, but not so much in that I'd have to redo my business plan.
If it does keep decreasing for much longer I need to concentrate my efforts someplace else, nothing less nothing more.

You guys just fucking cry and point fingers at America.Dont get me wrong I don't like the guy but the guy is president and we have to deal with it. SO DEAL WITH IT, STOP CRYING!

Yeah and they're all allies of Bush, not to mention Berlusconi who's also quite as corrupt.

They used to be more talks about them but now tthere's less talk about them because they don't go around invading countries.

Easy to say no big deal, just deal with it if you don't have anyone you care about in the ME.

I'll reply with a short, simple answer. If that's how you think then it's not your place to criticize the ME from whom you get your oil.

Oh I'm sorry... Nobody had told me that 'post count' is the new measure of intelligence.

What you don't understand is that most of us aren't frowning upon America. We're too busy laughing at you.
