Which is why so much of our crap pop culture is exported to the rest of the world. You're welcome.
No. Your crap pop culture is exported because corporate giants want to spread their rancid seed all over the planet. Nobody comes knocking on America's door asking for a cup of culture. A lot of your "pop culture" comes from Britain.

Just like us.
Everyone wants to be like Canada, whether they admit it or not. Just as valid.

By the way, the reason people can buy cheap electronics from China - the U.S. consumer. You're welcome.
Nope. Cheap labour.

Nope. Cheap labour.

The reason people get Indians on the phone for customer service - the U.S. business community. Our bad.
I'd like to agree with you here, but nope. Again, cheap labour.

The explosion of the U.S. economy & technological innovation in the United States in the second half of the 20th century coupled with the fact that we basically got rid of all of the really insidious threats to world peace, are the reasons that your lives outside this country are so peachy keen. You're welcome and f'uck off.
Your technological innovation stalled a couple of decades ago, and your economy is in the crapper. The rest of the world is doing just fine, it does not depend on the US for happiness as you seem to think. You're just not THAT important.
I don't hate America, I really don't, you do a lot of good things. I just hate the self centered attitude I see from a lot (not all, maybe just more aggressive than other countries) of Americans. You're culture is one of exclusion, dominance, and fear that breeds a lot of entitled twats.
