Bear Down, as much as we Americans don't like it, it's not just the French who hate Americans.

I think a large part of the problem is a simple one:

America has five to six percent of the world's population and controls, depending on whose figures you wanna cite, nearly half of the world's resources, certainly a disproportionate amount of the world's energy.

Meanwhile, we're a nation priding ourselves on liberty, but this same five to six percent of the world's population has 25 percent of everyone worldwide incarcerated in American jails.

So there's a bit of imbalance that the rest of the world sees, which we, as Americans, take for granted. Heck, we even have publicly-traded prison companies. Where's that at?
