Europeans are also to lazy to contribute money to scientific research. Most americans have more things than most europeans. What is proverty in the U.S isn't poverty in most european countries.

Of course! Because we all know that the longer work hours of Americans is one of the reasons they are the trimmest, least obese nation on earth.

What is funny, this is a fact. Americans tend to buy newer computers, own more cars, have bigger homes, buy more electronics, ect. What is important to most americans isn't important to most europeans.

No, I am just saying. What is important to most americans ins't important to most europeans. Americans are very materialistic, americans tend to view wealth as more important than europeans. Europeans tend to value relaxation and family time more. Eating with your family is far more common in europe than in the U.S, where children and parents often eat dinner/supper seperatly.
