I think when one refers to the United States as racist, you should consider each state separately. I live in Illinois and Chicago is mixed with everybody. Even business owners are of all ethnicities. So please don't lump us all into one opinion...that is wrong to do also.

You don't live in the US how do you know?
Personally some people act like I owe them something because I am white. Well My genes have been in the USA for less than 100 years so I have nothing to do with the past.
I own a business and hire qualified applicants. Speaking English is a requirement. Why the hell should I learn another language because someone who couldn't speak English decided to MOVE to the USA.
Reading is also a requirement. If I say go get the Dendrobates auratus they need to be able to read if they don't know what it is. There are some people who can't read in my area. Believe it or not some have graduated high school. They have 12 years of public education and can't read. I had a guy working with me that could not spell my name to put it into his cell phone. Needless to say he didn't get to go get the Leucanthemum.
I wouldn't move to India and expect you to change the country to accommodate my needs because I am too lazy to learn to speak the native language or adapt to society.

Discrimination is everywhere. I think the United States has contributed and helped many places. That sounds like an unfair statement. I'm not saying U.S. is perfect because noone is perfect, but I think the U.S. does a lot to help other countries in general.
