I couldn’t agree with you more. I’ve traveled extensively too, especially Asia. But I would (and do!) say the same thing to an American living in Taiwan and complaining about it….if you dislike it so much, why don’t you leave? I’m just saying, why live somewhere if you are so unhappy with it?
I encourage specific, thoughtful criticism; especially when it includes possible solutions. I do not care for blanket statements about “Americans” when many of my friends, family and colleagues (not to mention me!) do not fit HS’s profile.
