Mate, I mean it. And I am a FRiend of America. The way you see yourselves and the way you are perceived overseas are quite different.
You are operating inside a closed System, so you do not get an external view -- except by way of people like me.
Please don't attack me for giving you that view: it is always meant kindly. America has a very soft spot in my heart.
And yes, you would need to have had a job in the 1980's that placed you in a pick-up truck, in the middle of America, with the orders to "drive" for the next six weeks (as I did) over and over again to see more of your states than I did.
