This is expressed through determination to get ahead in school, attaining wealth, and striving for prestige. The United States has produced individuals such as the founders of Apple, being the first to travel to the moon, as well as having the top colleges in the entire world. ]]> 2018-09-20 18:34:44 UTC https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284093466 https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284093626 As Americans, we definitely admire those who individually can work from the very bottom to the top of society.  For example, Michael Ore, has received plenty of awards for his astounding accomplishments in the pro football league from coming from a terrible environment and poverty. At the same time, if one does fail, we tend to blame it on the individual versus the other large scale social causes which proves we value individualism. ]]> 2018-09-20 18:35:01 UTC https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284093626 https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284094384 I agree that Americans are very dependent and expect material things for comfort and other uses. For example the real house wives series is about some of Americas wealthiest housewives and how they spend their money and time. Often you see them in a big house with lots of things, clothing, jewelry, cars and many more material objects.

Although I do believe that as a whole we live in a society where our traditions from religion have a big role in our lives. In our society there are days where religious holidays are more important then work, during this time people come together to celebrate and connect with one another. ]]> 2018-09-20 18:44:04 UTC https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284099555 https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284100212 2018-09-20 18:45:25 UTC https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284100212 https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284100716 2018-09-20 18:46:27 UTC https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284100716 https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284101860 I disagree that there is full equality in America because men and women still don't have equal rights (wage gap) and gay marriages still aren't legal in every state. For example, women still do not earn as much as men in the American society. Womens rights and expectations have grown a lot as modern ways have taken over but there is still work to be done. ]]> 2018-09-20 18:48:44 UTC https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284101860 https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284101863 Americans do value humanitarianism. When disaster hits, we work to make sure people have homes and food. People from all over the country unite together to rebuild destroyed communities and help those in need. There are multiple American organizations to help those around the world.]]> 2018-09-20 18:48:44 UTC https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284101863 211digname https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284103536 I disagree that Americans base getting married on "romantic love". In my opinion people may get married for other reasons. Such as attaining citizenship, financial reasons, or maybe just pressure to start a family. ]]> 2018-09-20 18:52:10 UTC https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284103536 211digname https://padlet.com/211digname/ecxv4jvrox1t/wish/284107038 As Americans we value history. We reflect on our past and think about our history to shape the future. This can be seen from standing for the pledge in mornings and having a year long class dedicated to American History. Americans still take pride in past historical events and still learn and discuss things that have went wrong, whereas in places like Germany past events like the Holistic are not talked about.
