I remember around 96 when Clinton was president... I'm Brazilian and I thought America was the greatest country in the world... now not so much... I dream of moving to the UK. I dont think we will see improvements under Obama either. I've come to notice arrogance in America I had never noticed before.... especially when you travel internationally in American tourists who dont respect others cultures. I also hate the obsession with consumerism and the style of life we have here.

There are a lot more opportunities in the U.S. from what i hear.
I love the UK (i'm from Wales) but it's not a good place to be as far as opportunities go and it's only getting worse.
I'm actually planning on going abroad but probably more in the Asian direction.
I think you might actually be dissapointed if you decided to move here.

You get good and bad people from every country.
I've met some awesome Americans (and Canadians) but unfortunately you do get a certain 'type' of American tourist predominantly and then people tend to tar all of them with the same brush, which really isn't fair.
Bush really didn't help either mind you.:laugh:

US hatred is world wide.
Some of the hate is based on pure jealousy and some of it is because of the US attitude "we are better than you! we are always right, no matter what!".

I doubt that people "hate" the people in usa, its more what the people in charge do. I have many friends in Florida and Maine but I really dislike what was done by your deciders and the fact that you (the people) let them get away with it.
You probably are a good person and living in usa doesn't make you evil.

Usa put Sadam in place in the 70's and turned his back (oil) on America after they threaten to replace him if he didn't do what they say.
Yes he killed people but everyone on the planet is responsible for that because we always let evil people do evil things. Genocides in Africa, no one cares because all there is there is humans and I don't see you crying about it.
