What are some of the basic values identified as being central to the american way of life?

There are so many things that can be tied to the american way:

Personal achievement, individualism, work, morality and humanitarianism, efficiency and practicality, progress and material comfort, equality and democracy, freedom, nationalism and patriotism, science and rationality, and racial and group superiority

Summarizing:

I guess that all the central american way of life is all based on Hard Work, doing your part to improve society, and freedom (of all kinds). Without freedom, in the market and in the human action, we cannot have the american way of life that was designed by the founding fathers.

here are five steps to a strong outline:

choose your topic and establish your purpose. a lot of writers struggle to define the initial focus for their paper.

create a list of main ideas. this is the brainstorming part of the writing process.

organize your main ideas.

flush out your main points.

review and adjust.
