Why do Americans lack culture and refinement?

I know that the American education system is a mess and there is a singular focus on consumption (which must explain the weight issue) but why is it that whenever I speak to an American about the many faults of their country they always go into this robotic rant about being the greatest country on the earth bah blah blah as though theyve been scripted to say this?
 
What do you mean? New York and Chicago are some of the most culturally diverse and important cities on earth, Even people in the south aren't as stupid as foreigners think they are.
 
I believe it was Tony Blair who said it best.
I judge how great a country is by how many people want in, and how many want out.
Nobody leaves the U.S., and people will die to make it to its shores.

We don't need a script to know how great we are. You tell us yourself.
 
So what country are you from?
Would you like a list of things wrong with it?

maybe it's you delivery, maybe you hit upon a ones who do that, believe me, not all Americans behave that way. Not all Americans went to public school. And some Americans have traveled enough to be aware that there is no such thing as a greatest country objectively speaking.
American Schools do not "Focus on consumption" what does that even mean?

You may possibly consider the idea-nobody is interested in your opinion of America.
