Diff Peoples perspectives of the AWOL

Many people have a different definition about the American Way of life.
Many people have similar ideas and some have completely different point
of views on the American way of life. People who are not from American
such as immigrants or tourists have different perspectives of the
American way of life to those who are from America. Although, there are
also those who are from American but do not consider themselves
American. When exploring peoples ideas and perspectives of the typical
American Way of Life there were many patterns noticed as well as
completely different ideas from the patterns. These patterns include
work, money, and freedom.
When brought up the topic of the American Way of Life to those from
America many brought up a pattern of work being an important part of the
American way of life. Comparing work to the way of survival. Without
work a person can't earn money and without money a person is unable to
buy material items let alone items such as food or even shelter. Two (to
what seems to be) hispanic males both in the working class mentioned
that work is definetly a big part of the American way of life. "The
typical American way of life.... Get up, work, pay bills and take care
of my son. It can get tiring"  They also mentioned that "yes" they do
live a typical American way of life.
Work is an important part of everyday American life because without work
to gain money they won't be able to have a standard living. A standard
living is many mentioned is a good typical way of life. "The American
way of life is able to have the freedom of standard living. Thats is if
you can afford the comforts." Says Robert Hillman, a caucasion male.
Freedom is another common factor that was brought up that relates to the
American way of life. Freedom such as" freedom of speech, freedom of
religion, freedom of individual rights, etc. Robert Hillman mentions
that America has " Democracy and freedom of speech, individual rights
and religon. We actually have individual democracy that works and not
many country has that". When asked to elaborate he mentioned for example
is that the people in America are allowed to call the president an idiot
or anyone part of the government and the people of America are allowed
to be in any religion without being persecuted. Freedom is a popular
idea mentioned by people when brought up the question of what do you
think is the American way of life?
When brought up the question to those who were not from America they had
some similar and different ideas about the American way of life to those
from America. The most different idea that someone brought up was a
female cacasion from Irland who said "the American way of life makes me
think of fast food, and fast everything. Everythings always in a rush"
which is something very different from people who were interview that
were actually from America. Another male from Irland mentioned that
American, especially New York is like a "rat race", and that everyone
is always working. Again work is mentioned even to those who immigrated
to America. Which can infer that no matter what, if your in America you
can find yourself stuck into the fast lane of working to survive.
Even thought freedom and work was mentioned so much, politics
specifically was only mentioned once and it was mentioned as a "non
important" part of America. The same male from Irland mentioned "money
is important, politics is not because money can buy me stuff and
politics does not do anything for me." It seems that in conclusion by
looking at all the ideas from people in America that the American way of
life is all about living in a material world and doing so is by having a
minimum to advanced pay in working in order to earn a comfortable way of
life. Being able to survive as well as afford material items.
