I don't understand what kind of environment it takes for someone to have such a narrow view. I feel sorry for you.

Yes obviously I was generalizing. Do you think I think every single American’s only thing they care about is money? Let’s just relax and if I offended you I’m sorry. Also if it makes you feel any better Canadian culture and society is actually very similar. When you have a fully capitalist system and have the kind of institutionalized issues with wealth sharing and retaining a middle class, I dunno how you really get your back up. Do the majority of Americans demand change? No, not really.
So really my statement was maybe poorly worded because I didn’t think anybody would actually interpret what I said in such a bizarre way but I’m not sure I’m wrong on the overall sentiment. Again sorry I offended you.
