There's racism in all societies. Human beings are tribal creatures, no matter how "civilized" they claim to be. Singling out the United States is wrong.

There are definitely bad eggs within every group, and racism can certainly spread, but I don't think it's quite right or fair to just say "everyone is racist, deal with it."

Racism is taught, racism is learned.  Just look at children.  Kids don't see color AT ALL.  It's not until we get older that we become influenced by the world and begin to develop racial biases.  I don't think people are just inherently racist.

Racism is a taught/learned concept.  It's a vicious cycle that started a long time ago, born out of fear and greed, and is still going on today.
