As an American, born and bred I can't answer any of your questions, but I do think we, as Americans expect to have everything in our language. If we go to another country, we expect everyone to know what we are saying, ando to understand us, but if others come here, we also want them to learn our language. So I guess I want to add the question to the rest of the world...do you think Americans in general, are rude selfish people?
