This can be with animals and humans, women and men, children and adults, and so on.

The american government used to be more about big businesses, before the laborers. Then during the coal mine strike in 1902, when everything changed. This is when Theodore Roosevelt fought in favor of these coal miners. They made a reasonable deal with the coal mining company to have work and leisure. ]]> 2018-09-05 05:22:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ASEDU/871ra3aew0ls/wish/277840175 ASEDU https://padlet.com/ASEDU/871ra3aew0ls/wish/278267506 Competition in America is challenging your strengths and weaknesses with others for a better turn out in ones favor, something that will change ones life for the better usually.

Americans offer many forms of transportation these days, in America, if you don't have transportation, you don't have an opportunity. This is why Americans are big on transportation, this could be shown by rewarding children with bikes, later teens with cars, and when they are older, better transportation. But if you are not traditional, or have the means to be traditional, the government offers public transportation through programs such as RTD's, rental bikes, and school programs to reduce the cost of transportation. The image below is a school bus, it is supposed to represent the priority that America has on transportation, they are used for educational purposes nation wide. ]]> 2018-09-06 04:31:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ASEDU/871ra3aew0ls/wish/278273949 ASEDU https://padlet.com/ASEDU/871ra3aew0ls/wish/278275483 Volunteerism in America is a symbol of Americans giving back, yet it could also mean that they use volunteerism to stand out apart form the crowd for school entrances job learning opportunities and such.
