I have to agree with everything you said Dave. Since I came to live here, I've fallen in love with the place, it's become home. Here are a few things I love about it:
Despite their intense differences in religion, beliefs, and political ideologies, Americans band together like no other group in the face of adversity.
Americans at large are very open warm hearted people.
Americans have created a society in which a patchwork of different cultures have come together to form a bond of strength that has yet to be broken.
All I can say is that after living in the UK and here, and seeing alot of the rest of the world it dosen't take long to realise that despite the small problems, it still is a great piece of country.
