Well put. Human Beings in general use cynicism as a defensive stance. To avoid being "hurt" (I put that in quotation because for lack of a better word or phrase). American's, in general, are in the "very very very successful as human beings" category. I'd have a hard time believing anyone that lucky would be truly cynical; not just some bastardized version of cynicism.
