US and Them

I've been in Uncle Sam's land for the last couple of days. Was forewarned about the endless possibilities of opportunities awaiting me there. Here is a first hand account of my perspective of the experiences that I had so far.

What is US according to me : Its a land of plenty, less people to fight for excess of everything. The Americans think BIG or do they ?? They are made to think big according to me, for if the Yankees dont think BIG, the world might come to a stop !!! Let me explain..

Come to think of it, the American society is a Consumerstic one.Gone are the days of " Made in America " brands.What do u need to consume ?? Well the obvious thing that comes to mind is money and more importantly a mindset to consume !!!

Well every mortal being born in US has this consumeristic mindset ingrained in his blood and that according to me would symbolize the American culture.So, with mindset out of the way, the only other thing we need is Money. So, enter the flourishing Credit and Financial leasing/lending companies and lo behold, we have a nation moving on Credit.

Which is more important ? Producing Goods or Consuming goods ? Well, you need lotsa brains to produce goods, but no one to consume what you produce can spell doom to your business.So, consuming although it soundz a trifle easier is equally important in Market Economics.

Since the advent of globalisation, America has been indirectly responsible for the economic betterment of people millions of miles away and all this has only been possible becoz of the mindless American mindset of consumption!!! Its now become an irrevocable engine which needs constant fuel in the form of Billions of Dollars getting poured into this country in exchange for worthless T-bills.

So, when jobs gets outsourced to better places and plants get relocated to cheaper locations, the Americans should not be crying, for their core-competence lies in Consumption.!!!

" God Bless America "
