In you determined occasions, but many, we ask us with wise questioning ¿why the Americans are how they are? See them
saturated of blind
patriotism; obsessed with the social and economic triumph, faltos of tolerance to the frustration, uncultured, compulsive drinkers in many cases and with a total ignorance of the world but there of their borders.
Does not it seem eventually, a simple loaded context of a without number of appreciations, but very on the contrary, apparently, I have investigated, such premises would be able to have one of so many possible explanations, for which, we should mend us historically at the beginning of the 17th century, to know: in which at present we know as the United States of America, the final settlement in 1607 is achieved, being erected the city of Jamestown, Virginia, state, that at the same time, was founded by Sir Walter Raleigh at the end of the fifteenth century.
In the economic height of the British colonies in America, a significant fact is sets in motion that would mark the future of the culture and American idiosyncrasy: the disembarkation in 1620 of the Mayflower in the peninsula, loaded of religious fanatics: the Puritans, that were pursued in Europe. The dissidents populated all the coast of the Atlantic one U.S., jointly with people of very bad condition cultural associate that were embarked, in many occasions, in compulsive form.
Here we have two points of very important inflection: Calvinist fundamentalist religion, that is equal to theocracy, on the one hand, and by the other: an abundant group of lower-class and completely ignorant colonists. The Calvinists, they were for thus tell it, a split of the Lutheran Christian interpretation that accepted the theological doctrine that the salvation is obtained alone by the faith, and maintained also the doctrine Agustina of the original sin. The Puritans Calvinist adhered to the defense that did Calvino of the sobriety, the diligence, the savings and the absence of ostentation. Now well… we observe that antagonistic position above all it said previously: the Puritans believed that alone the chosen would be able to reach the salvation, and that at the same time, they were considered like such.
They could not be sure of such premise, until they had received a sign, now well… ¿which was the sign? They believed that its way of life was correct in an ethical plan, and it, implied the mundane prosperity that was accepted as the "divine sign" that expected. Risking in another field, such conditions, they generate an accumulation of pathologies: losses of identity, homicidal series, addictions in all their facets, being one of "they", besides the drug dependence, the envelope weight, current whip for the American government.
Another item not less visible, is the oral compulsion, gotten into focus toward the alcoholic beverages: United States is a company with culture alcohofílica. A social acceptance of the habit to drink exists exaggeratedly. Such characteristics can be appreciated direct or indirectly in factors that indicate the existence of a company alcohófila: a) scarce family cohesion, b) scarce communication interhumana, c) scarce social integration, etc., obviously without forgetting us of the equation faltante: religious fundamentalism, ignorance cultural associate and "capitalism brutal…".
Another questioning very interesting one: Blind patriotism, or imposed patriotism? Well, this theorem perhaps, can base on the ferrous fiscal discipline of the States. UNITED (but, we recall the case CAPONE, decade of the twenties and thirty, that fuere condemned by evasion, and not by homicide) fact, with the object of supporting a gigantic machinery of being able, control and interests created.
For the leading class, the American citizen is an enormous generating source of taxes, while the common citizen have cheap fuel (at times), long-term soft credits, he creates in their seudo democracy and he acquire products of low cost (labor practically slave of illegal immigrants), all he goes to be permitted, or, better said… ¡all they are going to be permissive! In synthesis, is a company with large financial gain and enormous social price. However, it before it exposed, summarizes us in a simple phrase: all possesses a price…
