My recent trip to USA has certainly been educating. I got many of my presumptions confirmed over there, but I’d have to revise some of them. Which is good. I like to get my perceptions and paradigms challenged. Reminds me that I’m not perfect.

Nevertheless, I am impressed by American society in many ways. Sadly, I live in a very anti-American society (socialists does not like America, for obvious reasons), a country where “American conditions” means something like “too much”, “outrageous”, “superfluous”, “absurd” and other things like that. “We do not want American conditions” is (sadly) a rather common thing to hear.
