Many Americans have a good sense of their 责任和利益 to the communities, and

发帖数: 2306 | 2 I think people on this board are well aware of what you said. I particularly
agree with your last sentence: It is the society and education which turn
people into who they are. I have met many Americans of various countries of
decent. But they share something in common. You compared Americans and
Chinese; Well, you can see the apparent difference between a Chinese
American and most Chinese in China.
Americans' sense of responsibility can be traced back to several causes.
American society is full

I particularly agree with your last sentence: It is the society and
education which turn
people into who they are.
Finally we agree on same thing! You mentioned some interesting points and
examples, especially Japan. Japan is very unique and interest case.
Well I may argue that difference, many Chinese’s lacking of sense
responsibilities and failing to stand up for themselves and others, is one
of the root causes of the current 中国综合症的病因, such as对人类生命的冷淡,
奴性, 缺乏勇气和正直的纯正品性, 中国人只在乎他们直系亲属的福址，对与自

发帖数: 2306 | 4 Well, I won't just generalize all Chinese people. I mean, it's millions of
people, and everyone is different. Many Chinese people are good people and
they are just not allowed to advocate for their rights. If you talk to a
countryside girl who works in the urban areas, she might suffer from things
we can't even imagine.
Now, back to this issue. A country doesn't need to be "civilized" in order
to be a superpower. It doesn't need to be democratic in order to be a
superpower. It just needs to be a

发帖数: 35 | 5 I would not put that much faith on those elitists for anything, not
mentioning "run a country".
“Smart” people do more damages.
A country doesn't need to be "civilized" in order to be a superpower. It
doesn't need to be democratic in order to be a superpower. It just needs to
be a collective power that is influential
internationally. The Soviet Union was an example.
