Agreed. You did not say "Only in America". Everybody wants to be free. Some just believe they are more free then others, until proven otherwise.

This is not a fault of the average American,but more an indictment of an insular education system which does not address much of the world.

And that is why college educated Americans have strikingly different world views from the ones who just finished high school. The highschoolers have been "taught", and there was nothing in their personal experience or further education to change their minds, until they are exposed to places that are less insulated of course, because TV and social media can only do so much.
