Oh, I certainly wouldn’t mean to broad brush the whole of America with this, but I don’t think I’m completely wrong in having observed a slight tendency to escalate something that isn’t working, coupled with a belief that the world is dirty and this can be resolved by increasing amounts of harsh chemicals.

For another example of the sort of thing I mean: [Athlete's foot, help](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/athletes-foot-help/949113)

I’m not saying that nobody else in the world might do a thing like this, only that I have observed a correlation.
