Americans can sometimes be viewed as selfish and overly competitive. They can sometimess be hostile or superficial to members of other cultures. This may give off the impression that American friendships are not sincere. Capitalism has a major impact on that. In our money-driven society, friendship takes the back seat to success. Before you can worry about making friends, you have to make sure you put food on the table. This connects to Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, where physiological needs take precedence before social needs.
