from Milton Mayer's They Thought They Were Free, p.150:
Americans have not had the Germans' troubles, perhaps by happy accident, perhaps because they have not made such troubles for others as the Germans have. Americans are not injured, and they don't feel injured. And, if they do, they do not characteristically whine.
that's certainly in the rearview mirror as of at least 15 years ago. Mayer's obvious contempt for the Germans can certainly be applied to today's Americans as a whole, as we are headed down that same path to tyranny. let's hope we wake up and smell the coffee before it's too late.
