do american people love people as much as british people do..? or do they just love money? ( Archived) (116)

Outside the cities it is amazing how kind and caring people are as a matter of course. In the cities people still care they are just so busy keeping their own lives together that they seem to have no time for others. For two years after 9/11 New York was a wonderfully warm and supportive community. Gradually things went back to the usual, each individual trying to survive. My theory is that when too many people try to fit in one space community spirit breaks down because no one gets enough personal space. JMO.

now thats a survey iam willing to partace and edudecate in please

Very good insight. There is an artist, Mary Englebreit, who uses the saying, 'Everyone needs their own space.' It might only be a tiny corner, but that is so true.

it works both ways in this life some love some don't love ,

That's right Dave, we are the World and many do try to make it a better place

Ok, too funny. Constantly amazes me how foreigners forget they are just watching a movie (or do you believe that every Brit is another Benny Hill ?) These are fiction, completely dramatized for entertainment purposes. Even those “based on a true story” have a little bit of fine print saying that name, locations etc have been changed, and certain parts were created for dramatic affect.

Sure, our sucky govt may have left New Orleans hanging, but we had regular citizens from all over going down to help.

And as far as the Irish being the most loving, will NEVER believe that (sorry, but my ex’s family was very Irish, and just don’t even get me started). But seriously, I would have thought it would have been the Italians, if anyone. And different cultures show love in different ways, so who would really know “standing on the outside” of it and not even knowing what you are really seeing?

To a degree I think the remarks about the city being colder than the out lying areas, I think that concrete just makes people stupid. And where you find the most concrete, seems you also find the most greed, crime, …

Hey Mr.Gilly!

I certainly can't speak for any American but me.

But,personally,I think I'm a very caring "American",if you need it...I'd give you the shirt off my back or the last dollar in my pocket...no matter who ya are or where you're from!!!

Irregardless of whether our governments get along or not... I want to be friends with everyone!!

That's one of the best features of this site as far as I'm concerned...the international forums!! I've got best friends and mates all over this earth,now!!!


It just doesn't get any better than that!!

Thank you to the CS site providers for that opportunity!!

...KUDOS TO YA'LL!!!


This really is a great site!!!!

Americans by far care more about money, thats how we ended up with Bushie in the white house 2 terms. Our society has de evolved to that point where greed rules. All thanks to 6 years of GOP rule

hey gillyloves69, my advice...go find out on your own. too many people in europe love to bash usa, then enjoy american music and products invented or developed there.

good and bad people exist everywhere. as far as greed...europe competes very well as many here like to go after euros.

in america, depending on where you go, many people are bright and very helpful. corporate america and governent is all about money, but not most people in general in the states. go see for yourself.

Honey, what do you think the Civil War was about and where did those people come from? We have a lot of educated, compassionate people in America also along with the very rich the very poor and the very ignorant.
