The redhead has learned shocking things.

Today, I learned that the German company Nutella is going to be sued by an American mother for being unhealthy.
....

What's that sound I hear? Oh, right, it is the sounds of me... BANGING MY HEAD AGAINST A HARD SURFACE REPEATEDLY.
Nutella, a CHOCOLATE spread, is UNHEALTHY? NAHH, really??!!
    My question for you all is, WHERE THE HELL DO THESE PEOPLE COME FROM? Why is it that the people who tend to do things like this always end up coming from America?
Answer choices:
a) These people are everywhere, the only difference is that people in America are more loud-mouthed.
b) New Jersey
c) These people are not entirely at fault, in fact, it is American society that teaches the American people from a young age that you can have anything you want and be anything you want with total disregard of others.

Alright, let's dissect.
a) Could be. There are uneducated, crazy people everywhere, every country has their share of dousche bags and dumbasses, that is balance of existence, without an opposite, things cannot exist. (It's the whole Yin-yang deal.) But on the other hand, it does seem that their are a lot more of these people in my good old homeland. This could attribute to the loud-mouthed tendencies of it's Natives or perhaos that everyone tends to assume Americans will do things like this so everyone pays more attention, or it is just simply true that their are in general more of these people in my country. Though I cannot exactly scientifically prove any of these completely.
b) Yup. (Nahh... I'm just kidding.... there are A LOT more dousche bags in Texas....) (dontkillmedontkillmedontkillme!)
c) DINGDINGDING. I believe this answer, though more annoyingly complex than blaming it all on Texas, has quite a lot more truth to it than many of the others. The American culture is one centered on the American Dream, a thought that was nice at first but in time can have repercussions.
When we think "American Dream", we think people who escape tyranny to come to the freedom and choice that is America where they shall live in the suburbs because they have a good paying job. We think of stories like Levi Strauss, the man who created the first pair of jeans in the old, wild west and became an insanely rich entrepreneur with his great idea. We think of having big things. Big houses filled with lots of kids, and big vehicles, limos, fancy stuff.
But America, let's have a reality check: How many of those people coming to America with the so called "American Dream" were ever happy victim to it's good repercussions? In fact, how many of those suffering from tyranny who came to your open friendly statements and arms and was actually admitted into and our country and accepted?
We need to begin realizing that we DO NOT own the world. We CANNOT have everything we want at the snap of our fingers and be living like we have because we have the "divine, sacred right of the American Dream". Someday, America needs to wake up from it's dreaming, because dreaming too long can eat one's life away and wanting something so badly that will most likely never occur is foolish. We cannot snap our fingers and recieve our life like a golden, certificate, we do not have royal blood lines that endowment is passed down into. In America, you have to look, work, you have to use your brain (*GASP*), in America you should know better than to sue a company for being unhealthy who's ingredients stand quite blatently upon the label. America should not spout excuses, it should change so that it must not tell them.
