[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4555062, member: 18222"] I don't see the USA as a 'Melting Pot' where everyone assimilates into one common culture. In fact, in my travels across the USA I have seen and enjoyed a great diversity in culture. I believe that the 'Melting Pot' is more focused on American Values rather than a American Culture. Look at the values espoused in the chart in post 1 of this thread ... those are American Values. Socialism is the opposite of American Values and that is why AOC says we must teardown and rebuild the "system". I like this chart better than the one DIDO posted in post #4 because it has the Melting Pot as American whilst ... [RIGHT]the Salad Bowl as a representation of UK society.[/RIGHT] I was in UK for a time and I never got comfortable with different 'districts' with their own culture and values. It is a useful comparison in which America is vastly superior IMO. [ATTACH type="full" alt="American Melting Pot vs UK Salad Bowl.jpg"]302623[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
