A clip from the The Matrix that seems to be strangely true. Agent Smith 
describing how Americans are the virus.

Agent Smith: I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time 
here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized 
that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet 
instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding 
environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply 
and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way 
you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism 
on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A 
virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a 
plague and we are the cure.
