    None of that surprises me except for the Japanese viewing Americans as relatively tolerant. Would have expected a much higher percentage on the INTOLERANT metric

    Same, just thought it was interesting.

    The "hard-working" index might be a little skewed as well, as the definition of hard-working is certainly different between the two populations. A 25% response might actually be a big #, I'm not sure.

    It's a country that won independence from Great Britain in the 18th century and has since become the world's greatest superpower. It has a population of roughly 320 million people and ranks first in the world GDP. Major exports include junk food and cans of whoop ass.

    Map of 73 Years of Lynchings
    The most recent data on lynching, compiled by the Equal Justice Initiative, shows premeditated murders carried out by at least three people from 1877 to 1950 in 12 Southern states. The killers claimed to be enforcing some form of social justice. The alleged offenses that prompted the lynchings included political activism and testifying in court. FEB. 9, 2015 Related Article

    Most of the lynchings out there were probably ruled suicides as investigators were more familiar with people living in west Texas wanting to hang themselves.

    Just an uneducated guess but:

    Mountains don't leave room for farming/ livestock. Rocky terrain doesn't afford the travel logistics to get manufactured goods out to the rest of the country, so no factories either.

    So all that's left if retail.

    Just a dumb tired guess on a Sunday night.

    And in a weird way, a lot of these resort towns (I've really noticed this with ski towns) you get a tone of outlet malls and retail stores in them. Every ski town I've been in (and I started going since 2005 till now) always has a lot of them. From what my dad tells me it used to never be like that (he went a lot in the 80's, or obviously closer to the 1990)

    so basically

    Florida = Gays
    Louisiana = Whores
    NY and CT = Swollen cunts
    New Mexico = Getting shot by the cops
    Arizona = Getting shot by strangers
    Tennessee and Alabama = Getting shot accidentally
    Kentucky, WV, and PA = Black lung
    Alaska = Plane crashes
