So, remind me again why we have to follow the rules, but 90%+ of the rest of the world does not.

Doesn't seem that strategy is working very well for us.

My sympathies lie with "Burn, Baby, burn!". Then, return 10 fold whatever the reaction might be.

Because we are Americans, and our entire system was built on moral principles.

We are 'exceptional,' and therefore live by a higher standard of behavior.

"Burn, baby, burn" may satisfy an emotional need in some, but it is the wrong thing to do.
