The main problem with the yanks is that they want to have their cake and eat it too. They pushed the dismantling of barriers to globalisation so that they could exploit the rest of the world for their own gain - but don't see any problem with voting in a succession of governments hell-bent on protecting their own interests at the significant expense of everyone else's. I'm not passing comment on the moral rectitude of the US' foreign policy, but it's surely a bit rich for Americans to basically tell people to mind their own business when they're electing a president... When the election of their administrations have such a profound effect on the rest of the world.
