    I don't think anyone "hates" America (US) in the full extent of the word (to imply the people). Well, some apparently do, enough , but that's a medical condition. What most people dislike about "americanism" is the money-going attitude which prefers quantity to quality and all the grey areas and excuses it has created to justify that style of doing business. It's not about "americans". I personally have no quarrel with anyone (since I'm a lousy businessman), but - around here - some people question the cultural value of things. "America" is just an easy target, because it produces so much: good things and bad things. So you just create a filter, and you will probably be unfair when you create one.
