It's because Americans are such opportunistic people. Even when staring into a wall of brake lights and stopped traffic ahead, each one still inherently believes that he alone will break through and succeed unencumbered in getting to his destination. Even still after slamming on his brakes and cursing over his selection of either mumble rap or Rush Limbaugh, his resilience is so strong that he immediately casts aside the lessons of the past 10 seconds, 10 minutes, or 10 years and proceeds to manifest destiny all over again.
