An European in America
Abstract
Basically, there are two kinds of people arriving to the US: those wanting to stay,
and those knowing they will go back sooner or later. The former ones immediately
undergo a visible transformation: they start uncritically believing in the (US)
government and pragmatically descerning the useful from the useless. The latter
ones look at everything with suspicion and derision, pretending they are just
„passing by.“
