Signs and Symbols of America

• Fast Food: I picked this image because I thought that it had a lot to do with American Society. In America, we are very lazy.We want things fast, including our food. Most families don't have to time to sit down and have a nice home-cooked meal. So what do we do? We run to a fast food restaurant and get greasy,unhealthy food because our schedules are too busy to make a simple pasta dish.   

 
•  Skimpy Clothes: I chose this image because it shows how the men in American view  women. The men in America treat women as if they are not   even humans. They call them all sorts of vulgar and grotesque names that offend women. Most men look at women as toys. They are to be played with and then thrown in the closet with the rest of their other toys. They don't realize that women want committed relationships. The way that American men treat their women is, in a nutshell, why other countries believe that American women are easy.

  

  
  
• Freedom: I chose this sign because i believe that freedom is the backbone of America. Everyone in America has the right to be free. We may do what we want, wear what we want, eat what want, and say what we want. Many other countries don't have that kind of freedom. They are told what to do, what to wear, what to say, what not to say, and so much more. Thankfully, we can do what we want, for the most part, and not get punished.

• Restrictions: Along with all the freedom that we have, we have many responsibilities. America contradicts itself greatly. They say that we have the right to do, for the most part, whatever pleases us, but then they put signs everywhere telling us not to do something. Yes, its true that we have the freedom to do what we want. But, it's also true that we need to chose wisely and think over about the consequences of our actions.

• Materialistic: America is dependent. We depend on technology for everything. Throughout the years we have advances so greatly that most people can't even image or remember their lives without it. It feels like everyday there is a new cell phone or a new kind of computer coming out. I feel that  many people would truly grow depressed if they didn't have their precious iPad's or their iPhone. America is completely materialistic. In every sense of the word.
