The United States

Cultures using hyphenated forms of “American,” such as Mexican-American, African-American, Asian-American, Native-American and many more is a step in the right direction for culture acceptance. With this positive move in the world, there could be a change in how cultures view themselves, leading to how others view them. The multicultural society has to take into account for this change because without their acceptance it would just be hate. Bharati Mukherjee in her essay “American Dreamer,” asserts, “WE MUST BE ALERT TO THE DANGERS OF AN ‘US’ vs. ‘THEM’ MENTALITY.” Although Mukherjee has a great point here, I have to disagree. I don’t feel that we have to be aware of the ‘US’ versus ‘THEM’ mentality with the change in cultural acceptance.

Immigration, legal or not, has been a problem for the United States for a long time. In the U.S., promoters of bilingualism have supported the use of other languages for public services, including government documents, hospitals services, voting ballots, and bilingual education. In their essays “A Nation Divided by One Language” and “Viva Bilingualism”, James Crawford and James Fallows claim that it is not necessary to declare English the official language of the U.S. On the other hand, in their essays “English Should Be the Only Language” and “Why the U.S. Needs an Official Language”, S. I. Hayakawa and Mauro E. Mujica argue that English should be made the official language. They contend that

There are those who do not like the idea that they are being better served than others are. It makes them feel guilty and upset; they will feel empathy and sympathy to those who never had the opportunities that they had. The minute one acknowledges that one has privilege, that individual must either act on that knowledge, or burry one’s head in the sand. Both in quality of education and in resources, those that are the most under-served are ethnic and racial minorities living in cities. On the other hand, those that are being best served are Caucasians in suburbs, who are disproportionately given the resources and money that urban schools need. Through political and racial attitudes that have persisted from our countries inception, these

.“Ships that come and go- I wonder where they’ve been and where they’re going when they leave. I wonder what they carry with them and what they bring. The other day when I went to the market, I saw stalks of sugarcane- one of the vendors said that it came from Barbados. Barbados is an island like Jamaica- maybe Thomas will take me there one day…”

Chapter 6 narrates the popular demand for a militarized “food dictatorship,” and the state leaders’ response to it. The poor Berliners challenged the market economy and believed that only a total militarized control of food distribution could serve their needs. Seeing the slow response of the authorities, the starving population found that the government failed to make their promise to reward their patriotism in the war. A byproduct at this time was anti-Semitism, separating “true Germans” from “the Jew” that were associated with profiteering (132-135). This chapter contends that the women of lesser means perceived the state’s capacity for controlling food distribution as a criterion to “adjudicate the government’s success or failure” (115). Consequently, the WWI Germany was not fully oriented to the military need and political loyalty, but full of dynamic altercation (115).

The victims of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2011 accept the president’s policy. Granting equal liberties also shows good will in changing this situation.

Early English settlers who sailed on the Arbella set a precedent that would affect the actions and history of the United States in the future. According to The Wordy Shipmates author Sarah Vowell, those colonists began the way the United States would be unique and not conform to what other countries do and this is shown in the actions the United States has taken throughout its history. Instead of conforming, most of the goals of the United States have been to allow other nations to conform to the United States’ image. Yet, those colonists who were being sent off with John Cotton’s speech questioned their decision to leave England in case there was some reason England would need their religious influence. There is no reason why their home

The Southern States of America was made up of the following, Georgia with Atlanta as the Capital of the new union, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Louisiana, Tennessee and Kentucky. Although, Kentucky wasn’t a sure bet at this point, there was still a lot of work to do in that state.

One of the main foundations upon of the Constitution is the innate belief that we are a government run are by the people, yet must simultaneously watch for the corruptions of those same people who stand beside us. It is the reason that the United States has a system of checks and balances, to prevent one branch from becoming too powerful, it is why we have the electoral college, though many argue it’s exclusivity has hardly served its purpose, and it is why we have the 7th Amendment, which guarantees all civil trials (that exceed $20, ironically) to be accompanied by a jury. Though the question of its justification and use is more complex than a complete agreement or disagreement, the amendment overall deserves its place among the others, and then some. It is not insusceptible to corruption, most will admit, but we need this right both for it’s efficiency and for it’s correlation with the very foundational principles that make up our country.

In document 1, the picture shows different countries represented by little people. In this picture they are all in a school yard, which represents the U.S. , and they are all out of control. You see the filipinos represented by the monkey looking child, you can also see china and other countries. What this picture wants to show is that the countries are acting like little children in the way that they cannot govern themselves while the U.S. is the woman taking care of them. The United States believed that these countries need help in government so they wanted to step in and “help”.

Despite the short history, it’s undoubted that the United States are the world power. Their resources and capabilities well sustain a power that outranks all the other countries’ ones. Their military forces and their effectiveness are point of reference for the others. The dimension and the heavy employment of US Armed Forces around the world are rich source of experience and considerations. It’s, then, interesting for this analysis to examine the values that sustain the USAF in order to find useful elements that can be implemented in the Italian reality. The joint regulation mentions honesty, integrity, loyalty, accountability, fairness, caring, respect, promise keeping, responsible citizenship, and pursue of excellence as primary values. The USAF first introduced in the early ‘90s six core values: courage, patriotism, integrity, competence, tenacity, and service. The Air Force reason behind this new concept was the reaction to a series of ethical failure happened in those years. Their ethical value was outstanding, but after few years, the USAF decided to institutionalize new core values with the publication in 1997 of The Little Blue Book. They were developed at Academy a couple of years before. The new core values, integrity first, service before self, and excellence in all we do collected outstanding ethical values in a much more efficient way, a built-in model to bring them to life.Integrity first is the most important values as it comes “first.” As specified in

The United States of America is a nation that displays strong democratic tradition but history teaches us that there have been presidents whom have demonstrated imperialism. Imperialism occurs when a stronger nation takes over by force a weaker nation or region and then imposes it’s economic, political and or cultural life on that region. Imperialism has been around for centuries beginning in the ancient world when great empires arose due to a civilization or religious belief attempting to dominate and control others. Then in the modern age the word is most often associated with the British Empire but in the late 19th and early 20th century the United States also possessed imperialistic policies. U.S. President’s such as William McKinley,

Miami Children’s are invested in lean in terms of the number of people, in terms of the types if training as well as the types of projects in the hope that once they promise to experience it would be throughout the house. Clinical science is already top of the line in the United States and combine that with a manual that tells you how to do these tasks and what you get are very reliable results. Lean brought to them the ability to unite several different areas that were once very segregated. They have several different areas of responsibility from prior to the patient arriving, scheduling, the patient actually coming in, how they process paperwork and what they have done is use lean in all of those areas to streamline their processes. They have seen as a bottom line impact is cost avoidance of four hundred and fifteen thousand dollars in just one of their cost reporting centers. Several ways they use lean in the operating room was RSPT department still processing department where they worked on their trays especially in one of the rooms that they worked on was the neuro surgery room. Then they took it out to operating room suite itself. So what they did was minimize the number of instruments. In the first quarter they did value stream maps and they did one for every individual and then in the second quarter they implemented kaizans which had been determined from the value stream maps. The discharge process was one of the biggest ones they did. They looked at the entire

Over the centuries, the United States has developed a rich political culture which includes a number of center principles and standards that act as the foundation of American democracy. Not all Americans embrace similar perspectives, of course, but the vast majority agree and accept these collective values. The ideals of equality, unity, liberty, democracy, diversity and individualism are deeply a part of the institutional framework of society. Political disputes are inclined to be about how to best to attain these values, not if these ideals have value toward the population. Though all citizens are not exactly the same, they allegedly are judged uniformly under the law. Some Americans might have more intergenerational wealth while others have less or none at all and some may have different ethnic and cultural upbringing which is separate from mainstream American culture; but all citizens of the United States have identical intrinsic entitlements as Americans.
