What Is an American in the Akron News Letter
An American will work hard on a farm then move to town for higher pay and return to the farm. He helps enemies then offers help to strangers. He searches for vitamin pills to live longer then speeds 90 miles per hour on slick roads. He ties the dog but lets his 16 year old son run wild. He pays 50 cents to park while eating a 25 cent sandwich. He avoids war yet never loses one. The US is ambitious, keeps earning power high, and has many divorces. The world wants what we have, but may never get it.
