Well the US has a silly belief that children's shows must be childish, and that children cannot comprehend any semblance of plot.
This, combined with the fact that cartoons these days in the US are aimed almost exclusively at children, leads to a lack of plot.
Then of course you must add in the influence of how the Blockbuster films have been soundly beaten by Romantic Comedies when it comes to churning out regular profitable works. As such, those US cartoons made these days that aren't exclusively for children still go for the comedic element, as that's what stays popular; more people like jokes than plots, so the bottom line dictates that plot is secondary to comedy.
Of course, you can find Japanese equivalents if you look hard enough, but I doubt that anyone would fansub them, and liscencing is pretty much out of the question as those companies have bigger fish to fry.

@greggiliti well c3 is very intresting since they just turned everything up on the 2nd chapter giving it a nice fresh "new concept" anime it may lack some explanations but we only on episode 4 atm ;) .
As to Horizon I must say the 1st episdoes are more of an introduction to a deeper political concept, I would like to say it is heading in an awesome direction but up to episode 4 there's still too many plot and character holes that must be filled before actually starting the story plot.

PD: This was made l8 and I'm angry+tired at the moment so the critics are a little too mean, lazy to fix em.

@Sonicfanx1 and Ouji Desu
I won't argue that Freezing isn't dirty, but the censored version isn't that dirty. Oh, and if you think Freezing is dirty, you obviously haven't seen Seikon no Qwaser... ECCHIECCHIECCHIECCHIECCHIECCHIECCHI!!!!!
