Also, jonthedull linked an interesting site of somebody comparing the USA to Germany. I wouldn't agree with everything, but many things make sense. wolflady26 and linnapaw might find it interesting, seeing as they have the exact opposite experience. (Being American and living in Germany as opposed to being German and living in the USA)

That is an interesting site indeed, even if a bit out-of-date in parts.

I sooo giggled at this:

Once one enters the country, a couple of items can be added to this list: the news coverage focuses a lot on violence, the violent horror movies in the video stores are openly visible to kids (they are not placed in the adult section together with porn movies as in Germany), extremely harsh punishing even of non-violent criminals (including the recently revived chain gangs in some states), and violent TV cartoons for small kids on Saturday mornings. Generally, Americans have a much higher tolerance for violence in the media (and a much lower tolerance for sex) than Germans. To me, this is perplexing, since America's violence problems seem to be much more severe than Germany's sex problems :-)
