Do you have a question about America?
Do you want to know why we do things the way we do?
Are you curious about the real America, not the cheap product you see on TV?
Then Ask An American!
Submissions must be in question form. The text box may contain additional context or clarification (please, keep it short. 3 sentences, max).
Don't be a jerk. We will remove questions that we find offensive, inflammatory, or trolling. It is up to the moderators' discretion.
AMA's are strongly discouraged. Most AMA's on this subreddit will be very generic. If you have what - in your opinion - is something unique you'd like to share, send us a message and we'll discuss if an AMA is appropriate.
No questions that are "research" or "survey" questions".
No "yes or no" questions.
Please read the FAQ before posting. Questions that are on the FAQ are strongly discouraged and may be removed if there is no new information to be gained from the question.
