The US is nothing like the USSR of yesterday.  The fact that you can openly complain about our government shows the difference.  Sure we have our problems here but, Americans really have it good.

The reason the US consumes a disproportionate share of the world's resources is not because we're wasteful, but simply because we have the biggest economy in the world.  Consider the fact that economies of scale also make the US economy one of the most EFFICIENT in the world, in terms of resource input per unit of economic output.\nThe fact that the American economy is so large and so efficient also has beneficial effects on other countries; in other words, we tend to spread the wealth.  Chances are that whatever is manufactured, grown, mined, or designed in the country where you live is exported to the US.\nFeel free to disparage the US and Americans all you please - we don't issue fatwas against everyone who hurts our feelings - but you cannot ignore the facts.\nIf you were to postulate that Americans are living beyond their means by running up incredible, unsustainable amounts of personal, corporate, and government debt, then I would completely agree with you.

HATE is a very strong word, but along such negative sentiments, perhaps it's because the U.S. has a very aggressive foreign policy that involves itself in the affairs of other nations, often times for its own interests above those of those countries. According to the President's last State of the Union address, this progressive and competitive edge is what affords Americans a certain lifestyle which, often times, is unavailable in those "hateful" countries. The U.S. comes across as "arrogance" at times and in many cases, just "ignorant' of other countries.\n\nOf course, there are religious assumptions as well. And what exactly you mean by "Americans"... in general?

It's what they use as read between the lines. Not all policies are good for the American People. Alot tend to go towards the Capitalists and Imperialists, for profits only, at the expense of the American People. You can surely understand that! They have hidden agendas in Legislature such as the Patriot Act. Raising fuel cost's, with record profits after Hurricane Katrina, and so on, and so on.

There is still quite a difference between our two countries, and I'd say vive le difference.  Of course, our good institutions like medicare are being undermined by corporate U.S., and I'm sad to say we have lots of traitors in our government who set their policies in tune with U.S. government.  We lost a lot of our sovereignty when a former conservative PM integrated us a lot into the American economy, and the present conservative government is continuing this path.  For example, we are now becoming associated with deservedly hated American foreign policy and losing our reputation of being fair and peace keepers.

Well The government now days are pretty greedy. They need more money to finance the supply for the wars that Bush is pushing his hardest. For example He say's " The gas prices are going up because we need money to supply the troops." I can understand that part but raising gas is not necessary. For other Bills like electric,Cellphone bills and water bills. They are pretty outragous too, Those things could be a lot cheaper but the greedy people who run it want the money. Also doesn't it state in one of the laws that the cost of surviving is free , like Food and water? Then why do they charge money for them? So really your doing really well, your in College and still have time to work two jobs. I admire you, keep up the good work!

We've tried fighting terrorism, but started a war against the wrong people, we'd like to think we're more secure, but we aren't, and we've generally upset the world community.  Our economy is plunging and there is a great unrest among Americans and the world against America.  Our government doesn't seem to do anything right and now they have the lowest approval ratings in history.  Basically, the US is going to hell in a handbasket.  So much so that I want to go live in Canada or Australia...and I'm a US Veteran.

The problem here is people can't think outside of the box. Americans just love to segregate, and pretend we're the cream of the crop. People forget we're all in this world together, no country is better than another country, we're just all people populating the world.

the government is so stuipid. it went to Iraq to rob oil, but each barrel of petrol cost 3 times its price just to steal it;)\nI wonder when will US stop wars. or at least to stop washing our brains that we have a great future. \ni think we get that amount when the currency falls .when  you can buy one coca cola for 1000$

Because our people are being led by a war-monger. We do not want to bother anyone but our greedy leaders just cannot keep their noses out of others business. They say they will do good for our nation when trying to get elected but, when they win they become whores to big business. I am an average American and all I want is to live in peace.

Because this country just can't seem to keep it's nose out of other countries affairs .  It thinks every other country should be just like it. Not all countries want to be like the U.s and the sooner the USA realizes that the better

Ask the owners of transnational companies..... America is a mere puppet in their hands.....You are toooooo naive... and an idiot, indeed, to ask such a silly question...

Because they are jealous that the U.S.A. is the best country in the world!!!!!!!!!!

That is an interesting point about America from its neighbour. It is a pity that Americans have not earned the good will of even one of his neighbours. They need to have a re look at their international relations and relations with their neighbours.
