Thank you for posting the entire article, unlike Mr. Annoying.

I'm not worried about exporting our values. We lead by example, and if the rest of the world didn't like how we live, they wouldn't be trying to immigrate here.

This may be the first time in over a year where I've had a different take on the situation than Steyn.

A couple of years ago, on a flight back from London, I got into a conversation with a man from the Netherlands who was criticizing the US for our consumption and penchant for large houses. I asked him why he was visiting the US,if he disliked us so much. He just shrugged and said, well I'm going to Alaska, that's different. No matter that he had already toured the rest of the US.
