My Ideal America

I believe that America should strive to be a country of freedom, equality, and choice. If a person would want to do something that doesn’t harm anyone, then that person would have the freedom to do it. For example, if a person would want to have an abortion, they would be able to have the freedom to choose to have an abortion. However, this is within reason and a person wouldn’t be able to do something that would possibly harm another person. I believe that in a perfect world, America’s government would be there to help the people. The government would provide basic rights to the people such as universal health care. Disadvantaged Americans would receive more help from the government.
I also believe that an ideal America would consider everyone
to be equal and would have equal rights. The Declaration of Independence states that “all men are created equal” and everyone had to right of “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Therefore, there would be no hate crimes because there is no racism, homophobia, xenophobia, and sexism. No matter if a person is poor or rich, male or female, everyone would get similar opportunities in life. It would become possible for anyone to achieve the “American Dream” by motivation, hard work, and effort. I also believe that an ideal America would be one of the biggest advocates for the environment. Fossil fuel use would decrease and be replaced with cheaper renewable energy, for example solar energy, wind energy, and electricity. It would be illegal to deforest specific areas in America and it would be one of the top priorities to slow down global warming.
