As an American it’s hard to understand how the world understands us. I get that they hate us for intervening in the Middle East but why do countries like Canada hate us? Is it because they think we are uncultured? Is it because we are powerful and they hate that? Is it because they sense that Americans don’t care at all about what other countries think and so they have no power over us? Give me the hard truth! I want to know. Are we obnoxious? Do we smile too much? I hate to be cliche but is it somehow tied to our freedom? I am half French and my French family is all tearing itself apart over some inheritance from my grandmother. None of the American family cares. If we get some money, sweet bonus, if not, we will all be fine. We all work, we all have houses, we live a perfectly decent middle class life. I sense that they hate that. For them that money seems to be like life and death....
