Welcome to America !

Many people think, including Americans, think that our culture is a culture full of lazyness, materialistic things, and many other negative things... this really bothers me because I do not think it is true. Just because we have money does not mean it should be looked at in a negative way. It is interesting how people look at our culture and what they think about it.

We, as Americans, like things. We like to have stuff because we are able to buy them. It should not be looked at in a bad way though. Money should not be looked at as a bad thing. There are many people who complain that we are a selfish, but I really do not think that's the case. When you ask someone about our culture they say that we are "fake" & "love money", but if you asked an american if they would like to live in the middle of nowhere with dirty clothes, no showers, & basically nothing that they have now they would freak out & say "no way!" but that is how most countries are. It is weird how people can talk bad about America, but if you were to take all these things away from them they would freak out...
