Xander loves America! You should wear a t-shirt.
It's just sort of amusing to have someone in England tell me (who has lived in the States all my life) what my country is like.
(htb's right in that the US is so large, and with so much "importing" over the years -- influx of other cultural attitudes -- that we don't even have consistent approaches from locale to locale. England is much smaller geographically.)
I think the ESTJ qualities you're seeing are remnants from 50 years ago. That's where a lot of the modernist, grid-style thinking came from. If you look at modern design and architecture, it's different. Maybe you miss that, because you're not watching the change happen over the years.
(btw, you don't HAVE to be right. It wasn't a bad supposition, I just don't think it fits the data.)
