It often surprises me that the Internet does not really seem to have done all that much to broaden how well a lot of people in the United States understand and view the rest of the world and how our nation fits into the mix. So much information is available, yet so many of the same and tired old myths and misperceptions abound. We are not the top dog in many areas that are commonly used to determine quality of life, yet so many in the United States continue to maintain that we are. Yet, these same people, a lot of them in influential positions and claiming to be experts, are quite computer literate and routinely ply the ether of the Internet. They must have very powerful filtering algorithms at work in their computers that prevent them from discovering what so many others can easily find and plainly see.
