Hi Ham,
An excellent list of American values:

> followed by respect for one's fellow man, the patriotism to fight for
> freedom, preserve Judeo-Christian morality, speak English as the
> "official"
> language, abide by the U.S. Constitution in governance, maintain the
> traditional family structure, observe the laws of the nation, and support
> the individual's right to acquire wealth commensurate with the effort or
> contributions made.
To this I would add: limit the role of government to protecting individual
(intellectual) rights to freedom of speech, freedom to own property,
freedom to travel, freedom of religion, freedom to bear arms, and other
freedoms enumerated in the U.S. Constitution Bill of Rights.
Somewhat redundant of the values you listed but worth emphasizing since the
MOQ views such rights as intellectual vs.social values.
Best,
Platt
