Originally Answered: Where does the false prejudice that Americans are ignorant come from?
Having made a number of visits to the USA over the years and having met many US business folk and tourists in the USA and in Europe I can honestly say that it is not a false prejudice - citizens of the US are staggeringly uninformed about the rest of the world, have an inflated view of their own country and a sickening sense of their own entitlement.

Preserve the old, but know the new.
