Americans should NOT give a hoot what the world thinks! A Canadian point of view

Submitted by James Burke (Canada), Sep 10, 2008 at 21:13

Given what the USA has achieved and given that it is the only country that is continuously examining itself and trying to improve itself and that it is truly the greatest country in the world that makes success look so easy, it should not care what the world thinks.

In fact, Americans should openly admit that they do not care what the savage, cowardly world thinks. Most of the world lives on a 10$ a day ( and if we remove the entire group of foreign soccer and cricket players and all foreign politicians from the equation, it is reduced to 3$ a day)
