I feel like we get held to a higher standard for some reason?

Not really. My expectations about Americans are pretty low, and even then I'm regularly being disappointed by what I see them doing.

At minimum you guys should be held to the standards that you claim for yourselves, but that's so much higher than I have ever seen your country achieve.

.

If Americans want the respect from the rest of the world that your country claims it deserves, you guys need to fix a helluva lot of things.
