You should just explain it out step by step your idea of what perfect Americana is. You know? A day in the life of what it means to be the perfect citizen.
I think I could attempt to learn something from you, then.
You always want it both ways, it seems to me. Enjoying society and then spitting in its face. It makes no sense to me, but since you got it all figured out, just explain how all these crazy people who live together will function without government? I am sure there is a key to this puzzle that I am unawares.
I have you figured as someone who wants everybody to turn the clock back 200 years and approach the modern world in a backward manner. Now, I am sure you will disagree, and then you can refer back to my first sentence. Thanks.

your question or questions seem confusing.
Do you mean perfect America, our country, or it's citizens?
For starters we are a country of laws and equal justice for all, though many would say that's a departure from the reality of what really occurs.
The executive branch has gone beyond it's intended scope.
How would all those crazy people live?
They won't Bee.
200 years?
No Bee,
2000.

Sorry the news article was dated when I read it and no longer available.
Private contractors in Afghanistan making big bucks already.

Anyway, the sense I used Americana would be along this line, but obviously, not the last part of the quote.
"The term can be used to describe studies of American culture - especially studies based in other countries."
And then also this part is what I was thinking too, when I used the term,
Patriotism and nostalgia play a defining role in the subject. The things involved need not be old, but need to have the appropriate associations.

Everybody and his brothers going to be using these damned things.

Personally, I'd prefer the other way around.
