Was overhearing a German businessman's conversation in LA one night.
He said people would spit on his Ferrari in Munich and that the German people were so bitter they would jeer and swear anywhere he went. He said he realized he can never change the German people, and his wife and family moved to Los Angeles.
He said he feels bad that other German businessmen don't know about this place where people congratulate success and are nice to people who have achieved success. (a socially normal response). He said in this American environment, capitalism, he feels motivated to achieve even more.
And to date, no one has spit on his car since he relocated or even looked at him funny. Instead they just want to talk to him.
Major cultural difference. Socialism decays.
