No, I meant something else - You have left the comfortable position of a politically correct foreigner who is ready to forgive every stupidity of the host nation as a „cultural phenomenon“, and now you are talking as a person who has been raised here  and knows the difference between culture and bad habits. 

And tries to change things for the better! 

People generally know what is wrong and what is not, but it's like smoking to an old smoker - you know that the habits kills you, but you won't quit, because it requires an effort. 

And before I start talking about politics, I would rather stop ;-) 

These are very good observations and please, don't quit on us, we need you to be unsatisfied with the situation.
