A counter point to the passport thing is the size of the us. You can travel the same distance as Spain to Finland to Ukraine without a passport. Go to la, ny, boston, Dallas, Miami and Seattle and tell me they have the same culture.

    As someone else already tried that argument, I'll say the same thing. We do have the same culture. Sure there are minor differences, but we all celebrate thanksgiving, christmas, there's always a Target nearby and there's always an auto mile. It's all the same. Nowhere in the US, except I would consider Hawaii as a maybe, do you actually experience fully a different culture, to be in complete culture shock, where things you know as concrete and rigid are thrown out the window.
