I like the connection between American values and life to community. A lot of immigrants and settlers felt the same way as I see it, being outsiders and downtrodden where they came from, America granted them "new life" and basically let them work their way to riches and a happy life. Whereas in England many would work for days and never amount to anything. I think Crevecour likes the idea of a free and honest system, with a direct relation of lifestyle to hard work.

I agree with you views on Crevecour's ideas. I think you sort of stray away off topic and lose your track but your piece seems to reflect your ideas and opinion well. I'd like to ask for instance what are some comparisons Crevecour makes between America and England. Who is Crevecour and why did he write what he did? I like the bits about everyone's own idea and definition of freedom and America, it seems very thoughtful.
