Respect for different cultures
This was a bit hard to understand but here we go.
1. The Americans with their population of 308,745,538 according to the census from 2010 make up only <u>5%</u> percent of the the total worlds population. Even though it makes up only about 5% of the world population the US is still the third largest country in the world in terms of population.
2. Still even though the the population of the United States makes only 5% of the total world population they make up about <u>50%</u> of the "world's top 1%" So that means that 50% of the biggest earners in the world are the citizens of the United States of America.
3.To further clarify this, it means that a <span>majority of Americans are in the <u>1%</u> of all earners in the
world, which is defined as those earning more than $34,000 a year. This takes into consideration the average earnings of all the citizens of the world the 1% is classified as those who earn more than 34,000 dollars.

</span><span>4. This is thanks to the United States' commitment to what is called<u> a free enterprise.</u> Free enterprise is also called a free market, which is an economic system in which there are few restrictions and as little as possible government meddling in which the rules of supply and demand rule.

Well after the civil war, the south was almost completely destroyed, the land, but also the government infrastructure. The North was very strict on the souths rebuilding, this was the time of "reconstruction" where northern troops basically told southerners what to do. Obviously this made the Confederates hate the North even more, they felt as if they were not in a "free" country at all.
