Interesting article, but there's one big item missing from this list:

North America was settled more recently than any other region of the industrial world, which means it was effectively built from a "clean slate." It's one of the few places where you can trace ownership and property titles back continuously to the first property owners in the age of written language. This makes all the difference in the world when it comes to something as simple as banking, lending, and investing.

and like it or not, we WERE the ugly American ... arrogant and powerfully smug.

And NO one could say boo to us ... and they didn't.

Until we had our minds changed by other, more caring and loving for others, social re-engineers so that now ... we ain't shit to anyone ... including ourselves.

How do you fight against an idea?

With another idea
