Freedom: In 1789, America set up a country of equality and freedom, and implemented the separation of church and state and limited the power of religion which was an emerging nation and developed their own constitution and the United States Constitution clearly stipulated for the abolishment of privilege level。 Inpidual freedom is the core element of American inpidual value system, and Americans see freedom as a treasure。 However, the view of American freedom is not disorderly, which roots in the legal constraints。 Americans believe that freedom is restrained by laws, and every personage has the right to control and change their own fate。 In the meanwhile, this right can not be interposed by the government, religions or any other authorities。 The attitude of American high degree to freedom attracts a lot of foreign immigrants, and this makes the United States become a nation of all nationalities to settle down。来`自+优-尔^论:文,网www.youerw.com +QQ752018766-
Independence: In order to acquire inpidual freedom, you should learn how to be independent。 If you rely on others blindly, you will face the risk of loosing freedom。 In the Unite states, young people are essentially free from the physical and spiritual attachments of their parents。 Because they all hold the view that if they go too far to rely on their family, the social or the government and they will have to meet the needs of the outside world which will increase the burden on them, and then they will make themselves lose the precious freedom。 Absolutely, if there has one people to rely on some organizations or other people, this people will loose the respect of others around this people。 Although when they conform to certain relief conditions, they can get some relief from the charitable organizations or government, the whole society is not to appreciate this behavior。 Because they think that this behavior sets a bad example to the whole Americans and has a bad effect in the same time。 That is not conducive to the further development for the whole nation。 Also, the operation and management of the United States government is independent。 In the United States, the government is pided into federal government, state government and local government。 These governments are independent, and the government is only responsible for the parliament, and the things which they deal with are not interfere with each other。 Government officials are also elected by the people, thus it is very good to avoid the corruption of the officialdom and officials at all levels have to do practical things to seek the trust of people。 All departments also have a clear pision and responsibilities unified。
