So Americans end up wanting what they want...wanting it right this second...and wanting somebody else to pay for it.
But then...this is a country built on a foundation of the worst combination of philosophies possible...
Puritanism - the rest of you are sinners.
Utopianism - everywhere else is a ****.
Individualism - I got mine, too ****' bad for you.
And...the Manifest Destiny cherry on top.
**** right out of the gate.
