And the American potheads that go visit Amsterdam don't give a shit about the Netherlands or the rich culture in Amsterdam, they just want to go do drugs and fuck whores.
Again, those programs university students are offered are not cheap, and most families cannot afford it. I know because I did one in Paris and it cost $35,000.
Lol I'm American! so of course I'm not insulting the whole population, I've also met my fair share of smart and intellectual Americans, but more often then not, they all come from wealthy families.
