@ Randoh - some questions and comments

Hello Randoh,
I have just read what you have written, and I was amused and frustrated at the same time...
Have you read my previous comment?
First of all, I wonder where you live, that you complain about Germans being mean and rude. I can only repeat myself: I have experienced impoliteness myself in some parts of Germany and felt offended. If you mean our straightforward nature, not beating about the bush, then my comment is: I am working with an Asian company, and this is the total opposite - you never receive a clear answer, people do not stick to what you have agreed on, and negotiations take for ever. Maybe you should try that for a change! Get a job in Asia!
But of course, judging from your description, you are 18 years old. I cannot imagine you have joined the workforce yet - otherwise you would get the facts straight... Who told you about 52% income tax? Hello? Nobody would work in that case! I am in the most expensive tax class, and my salary is quite high, and the total of income tax and social security (you know, that exists as well) is 44%. And when I do my income tax declaration, I get quite some money refunded.
Well, when I was your age, I didn't know these things either. But at least I did not complain about them.
Some more comments:
Countless sports channels? - I have cable, and I only count 2 (out of 36 or something.)
We Germans think we are the best, e.g. electronics? What? We have long since realised that nations like Japan, South Korea etc. overtook us in this field! And cars? - To be honest, I only care about the price and the consumption, so I would never buy a German car myself...
The buildings are old and crappy? Again: Where the hell do you live? For your information: "Old" is mostly a synonym for "historic". Have you been to places like Dresden, Hamburg, Muenchen etc.? And have you been to London, or Athens, or Rome? Well, you apparently are one of the young people who cannot appreciate historical architecture - maybe you have to get older to do so.
We are a country of farmers? Hello? The number of farmers has decreased immensely compared to the 1800s. Nobody wants to be a farmer today. France is a large agricultural society, compared to us! Because of Germany's scarce natural resources, education, know-how and technology were our main assets. This is the heritage we are still living on.
The language is the most difficult one you know? So? Isn't that a challenge? And which other languages do you know? I learned Latin at school, and German is similar to Latin (grammar etc.) - and Asian languages are much more difficult than German!
German music is crap? Well, the example you gave is like the most terrible thing there is, and I despise that as well. On the other hand, why haven't you mentioned any of our good music?
I could go on for ages, but I don't think I will be able to make you see. Nevertheless, I would strongly recommend you to GROW UP AND STOP WHINING! Sure, the grass is always greener on the other side, but I have lived in the U.S., and I know of the advantages and disadvantages, and I would not want to spend the rest of my life there, but that is my personal opinion.
You sound like the typical "angry young man" who does not know where he belongs, for some reason. Please open your eyes, start thinking for yourself, and try to get a nice, sensible German girlfriend, not one of the "Tussis" you have probably tried to land with.
(Sorry, I did not want to become personal, as I don't know you, but this is what you provoke with your comments.)
