Is it unpatriotic, as an American, to envy the way the Japanese do things? I was stationed in Japan and really miss it. We could learn a lot.

- johnny22 2y agoI guess it depends on your definition of patriotism. I wouldn't use the word "envy" here though. My perception of what what is patriotic is that we borrow what is most useful from the places our citizens come from.
- dgunay 2y agoAbsolutely not. I find it more unpatriotic when people say things like "we can't have that/do that here" as if the Japanese are an advanced alien race. It especially peeves me when they take this attitude with anything technological. America can do anything, when it gets out of its own way.
