Abstract:

Although the U.S. is economically similar to Canada, Mexico, France, West Germany, Italy, Britain, Spain, and the Netherlands, the U.S. runs by a different philosophy. Americans believe in equal opportunities, but not in equal results. Americans are more likely to emphasize an individual's responsibility towards social needs than to back government action. Unlike these other advanced industrial democracies, the U.S. has also maintained a distinctive religious personality.
