Our excess goes abroad

Americans are notorious for our excess no matter what the product is we want it bigger and better. we love to out do our neighbors and compete to show who's on top. One of my favorite over the top reality shows "My Super Sweet 16" has now taken Americas excess abroad. This reality show goes into a 16 year old's life to see how they can throw the biggest and best party of the year. Usually at a hefty tag to their parents along with a brand new car or two at the end. MTV plans on starting production in one of the most wealthiest and extravagant places on the globe, Mumbai. So now another side of the world can take a peek into the lives of the rich in awe at these expensive birthday parties. America's influence on television is felt all around the globe especially networks such as MTV. This forms attitudes about wealth and especially how Americans view it and the rest of the world watches some in awe and some in envy.
