Hi muAn, \n\nI used to have the same idea as you that Americans/Europeans do not care about their elders but that's just a generalization. I realized that we cannot just look at them as a whole but we need to look at them as individuals. We must also respect them as we respect our elders. \n\ntake care =)

it's my theory that americans seem to take things for granted more than non-americans.

Well, I'm not sure you did much to make the Europeans make jokes about "stupid Americans" considering your grammar and spelling.  But, seriously, what are you talking about?

Canadians are generally nice people, their country looks like the US but the people is much more "European", even if they are also very north Americans in most ways.  I must say that I know especially Fench-Canadians, because I visited Montreal and Quebec.

Most Americans have great respect for everyone who is rational, productive, and self-sufficient. This also means anyone who does you harm should be served justice in the interest of protecting free principles.\n\nThe problem is that everyone BUT Americans seem to eat up whatever the media says, or they lack the education to realize that Americans are like any other human being. We live for our happiness and productive achievement, and we highly value our liberty and security.\n\nAny actions we take are a result of that love for freedom and that moral pursuit. We do not tolerate socialism, facism, or totalitarianism, but rather open and mutually beneficial relationships and trade.

I'm currently reading a book called "United States of Europe" by T.R. Reid.  This book is thin and very easy to read even if you don't have a lot of interest in the subject.  It covers European attitudes about the new EU and about Americans in the preface and first chapter.  In fact the attitude of the citizens of Europe is the main focus of this book.\n\nIn general, Europeans, specially the younger generation are excited about the EU and feel themselves to be EU citizens.  The fact that political and economic borders have also disappeared creates a situation that people can live and work anywhere they choose.  \n\nI think it's great that you are looking into doing a paper on this as European unification will be marked as one of the greatest turning points in the history of mankind and we are alive at the time of its formation.  It's kind of like being there in the early days of Rome.\n\nI don't have any links, but the book I recommended is cheap to buy used from amazon and will answer many of your questions.\n\nGood luck.

I think the answer is , "Yes".\n\nThey say all over the world that you can always tell the American in a crowd.  He's the one who has a resume on his chest.  In other words, you know his whole life in just a few minutes.  Europeans let out private parts of their life over a long period of time.  People are interesting, yes?

I presume you mean Native Americans.  As someone with both Native American and European blood in them, I can answer with a little less bias.  Humans have been spreading around the globe since we left Africa About 74,000 years ago.  We took the land from the Neanderthals.  If they still existed today, they'd be complaining as much as the Native Americans do.  And, to some extent, they have the right to.  The Europeans thought they were the civilized ones, and instead of learning what the Indians had to teach about living with the land, they just took it away.  The Europeans went about things in the wrong way.  Like bullies taking over the school playground.  I think the Indians took it far better then I would have. I have more European blood than Indian, but I have to side with the Indians on this one.  Some Indians take things to far, but the vast majority do not.  As to Kenwick man ... irregardless of how old he is, he was here before the Europeans, therefore, must be Indian.  I think, however, they are foolish to obstruct scientific investigation.  Don't they want to know about their ancestors and where they came from.  I hope this helps ... the question is rather vague.

Social Darwinism, one of the primary racist philosophies, basically says that races have the right to do to each other whatever they wish.  Therefore, according to many racists, Europeans deserved America because they had superior technology and easily disposed of the Native Americans.  White Supremacists would probably say Native Americans weren't using the land anyways.

My apologies for the above words of my fellow American. I'm sure Europe has it's share of idiots as well.

Each country (mostly the democracies) offers something that is better than what America does such as the Netherlands have more free speech, German deals with the health care the best, Switzerland deals with unemployment the best and on it goes but I do think the innocent til proved guilty idea of America is best. Most Americans just love their country especially when talking from someone from another country but most people love the country they love as long as they have rights and opportunities. That said you will rarely find an American that doesn't have something about their country they hate and I think its true for most people in other countries just don't expect them to admit it to a foreigner hehe! Also, not many Americans are interested in other countries because until recently we were not impacted by them as much as other countries seem to be impacted or knowledgeable of us.

For me its not even though I moved to usa with a lot of money which where spent instantly to cover all needs.I mean life in Usa is better than in Europe only for money because if you actually get a degree here you can find a job easier than if you live in Europe its  hard because there is a lot of competion.However life in Europe is more expensive and they get paid less so you choose and make your own decisions :)

Western Europe is as developed, if not more, than the US. If you take a look at Great Britain, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland or Austria (to name a few), you will see that, even though they have a different style of living, their "modernity" is similar, if not more advanced, than that of the US. There are also South-Eastern countries who are just developing, due to having been occupied or influenced by the Communist regime. Anyway, most of them are preparing to join the European Union, which will help them reach the modern European and American standard. I believe the old continent is evolving at a very fast pace.

Yes, very good people, the US media does a pretty good job depicting people from other countries as a bunch of illeterate corrupted terrorist savages, when in fact most people all over the world have good education and show more respect and knowledge of other cultures than americans.

No. the 'white' people in America think that their 'democratic' system is better than the systems found in certain other countries.
