America from our perspective

          Hey friends it's us again with another blog. We have a roster change this time, with Matt and Connor instead of Jake. So this time we'll be doing a See (What we notice), Think (What we think about what we see), and Wonder (What we wonder about these discoveries). It's going to be about the U.S. as a whole, good and bad.
          See: In the US we see a lot of variety of cultures and people. There are Blacks, Whites, Asians, Native Americans and so on. With these different people there is both equality and unfortunately a little inequality. We are the mixing pot as they say. There are many streets filled with buildings and houses that sometimes look much the same, destroying the nature as they rise. To the adversary there are marvelous buildings and nature of beauty. Our economy runs on capitalism with tons of people competing for your money. There are Countrysides and Mountains, as well as Great Lakes and Plains.
          Think: We think that we live in a very privileged and opportunistic Country where in most cases if you can dream it you can do it. We often forget of the problems of the world and about how lucky we truly are. But at the same times there are many problems that riddle society, such as lack of human interaction due to technology, different sides in government constantly arguing and getting nothing done. Our perception of happiness may be skewed by the attraction towards money. Our assumption for the reason behind these problems is that with every answer for one problem another query arises.
          Wonder: We should wonder where we will be in future as well how different we may be had history altered itself. What if technology didn't steal social interaction to the extent that is does? What if our country was a dictatorship? What if the Cold War had begun? How do other Countries see us? Are we as well off as we think? There are many questions of which you could answer. What kinds of good and bad things do y'all experience, and what's your perspective?
