lots of foreigners as well as tons of americans do not understand fundamentally why america is the way it is, so I'll clear that up for everyone
at its core america is a country founded on making money, and protecting rich people's money once they have it, and it continues to be to this day. that's it.
>what's the number one reason why people still want to move to america? the prospect of making money
>why does america have shitty healthcare? makes insurance companies insane amounts of money
>why are american cities designed to force people to buy cars and drive everywhere makes car and insurance companies insane amounts of money
>why did white flight happen at such an astonishing scale? made real estate speculators insane amounts of money
>why are rents skyrocketing at an out of control rate? makes landlords and investors with real estate portfolios insane amounts of money
in america, people see making money in any and all forms as a fundamentally good thing, regardless of the social and environmental externalities
most other countries on earth are founded upon some sort of collective cultural, religious or linguistic identity, america wasn't. this is why american culture today is nothing but consumerism (perhaps immigrant communities retain some vestiges of their homeland's culture, but after a generation or two it's doomed to be replaced by consumerism)
>why did america do slavery made slaveowners insane amounts of money
>why does america foment wars around the world? makes arms manufacturers insane amounts of money
>why does america allow so much drugs across its border? makes the CIA insane amounts of money
>why is the liberal elite of america now pushing identity shit everywhere? strategy for corporations and wealth management firms to keep their insane amounts of money
there are lots of reasons for these complicated phenomena, obviously, but making and maintaining people's money is the number one reason behind it all
>Just because there are a small number of people playing the music of centuries past means nothing in the day to day life of Americans to what they export. America is designed as a global company from the ground up, it's made that way so people in Saudi Arabia can listen to nigger rap or buy Call of Duty. You're a money-making machine for Jews not a real place with historic identity or sense of future. American historic identity doesn't go beyond last week's music billboard.com spots. Go watch some Netflix mutt.

And this is a bad thing because...?

Canada is the same way except it has no global impact and it’s identity is based around “please you guys, we’re totally no just America jr, I promise!”
Don't care, didn't ask plus you're not white plus ratioed.
Oh and also. >civil war >american indian wars >revolutionary war >we're younger than almost every single country >our system of government is literally one of the oldest in the world >but no history
>why does america have shitty healthcare? because it's bogged with regulation, patents, and coercion.
Ian Adams
>our radically libertarian single payer healthcare system where people have to pay thousands of dollars for life saving medical care is actually TOO regulated, blame the gubmint peak america moment
William Lopez
>SHIIIEEEEET, WE GOT TOO MUCH REGULATIONS >regulations are when the government let's private medical corporations charge whatever they want for life saving medicine right?
Pretty much true. Whether or not this is a bad thing is up for debate. On one hand the lack of a uniform cultural identity rooted in something thats NOT money kind of sucks. On the other hand its this massive money-making machine that propelled us to where we are today, so at least we know its effective. You NEED to go back.
