Cultural Observations

Americans are ridiculously petty.

I realise that pettiness increases as class decreases. But I had forgotten how petty Americans are.

America is evidence of the Peter principle writ large. In an attempt to create an aristocracy of everyone we have enabled people to live beyond their capacity.

Not the productive capacity, but their emotional and psychological and social capacity.
