Are we all becoming American?





The influence of America in our society has been very powerful.That’s why we use so many American words, things, food and adopt habits. For example,the fast food like Mc Donald´s. Everyday we are confronted with a such diversity of products, movies and songs that come from America. The majority of brands that we find in Portugal like Converse, Pepsi, Coca Cola, Marlboro and Colgate are American. Portugal will always have the same problem that´s copy what the other countries do. When we try to adapt we blow it.

All this influence are excellent, but when we talk about teens that imitate violente scenes it's complicate because we already hear about school massacres and kids that torture other kids, like they see in movies and serials. We think that when we talk about products and technology the USA influence is good but when we refere american habits that is not allways so positive!
