Whats left, Canada and Mexico?

and for Alaskans, there is Russia.

The bar is set pretty low.

Other than University grads, Americans know little about the world outside of America.

Many American university grads know very little.

My point is not that Americans know as much as others so much as it is that others know as little as Americans.

If you look at the originally referenced article, it fails to mention that the same forces (low cost labor competition from China)acting on the US have been acting on EU less prominently, but Euroland can look the US to see what is ahead.

A weekend jaunt from Bavaria over to Austria or a trip down to Mallorca for a week in the sun won't really provide the perspective needed to understand that.

In my experience, a passport is necessary to get a room in most hotels or pensions in western Europe. Even though the borders are open, a passport is still required for travel within the continent.
