Not to start a flame war but those "philosophies" are what make lives
generally better then what they are now. And without cultural change..
there is a great chance of a collapse like in Rome, Egypt, etc. People
travel to the US too. And we also do take great pride and respect in our
culture and traditions, we're just different from Europe and Asia.. it
doesn't make us any less equal or important. Please don't respond to this
starting something saying we're better because blah blah.. it's not
important.. just wanted to share my view :)
