Too bad there are so many bigots here in the U.S. Bigots give us
a bad reputation. To any people of European or Russian descent,
please accept an apology for this Boor.

Don't apologize too soon. Do you know what a troll is? This could very
well be a European trying to start a flame war. I certainly haven't heard
a single American tout "the almighty dollar" but I have heard countless
Europeans accusing us Americans of worshipping it. You can apologize to
humanity for such a stupid post, but don't be so quick to assume the
identity of the poster.
