If you're insinuating something about people who live in the United States; keep this in mind.......
In countries like Europe, over 70% of wealth is the product of birth or inheritance. In America, every city has thousands of immigrants who came to the United States with nothing and now run thriving businesses.
80% of American millionaires are entirely self-made. I don't know about you, but I'm proud to live in a country that supports a free market.
I know that's off-topic, LOL, but I constantly hear people talk about Americans having a poor attitude, yet they widely support and profit off by-products of our capitalist system. All the biggest online companies were created right here; google, yahoo, paypal, ebay, craigslist, facebook, etc, etc.

LOL wtf? why are you turning this into an american thing. and what is even worse you bring up Europe as a comparison!!!
That is the entire point of the west lol! we are almost the EXACT same people if not the EXACT same. and alot of people dont want to be the EXACT SAME as us.
You make Americans look bad by always insinuating everything back to them. You even go out of your way to
bold letters to show how great you are.

bingo! that is the entire point.
but if you only work for possessions. and do not work on anything else. you are still in the end tied down to them. no matter how much you can afford them.
