Herbert Hoover felt that a key part of the American spirit was rugged INDIVIDUALISM people’s belief in their own responsibility and power.
False because the world is a sheep herd one person does something and everyone else decides they want to do it too this is why things go "viral"
The dominant ideology in the US is a mix of many doctrines, what forms it is a combination of many essential aspects: the ethnicity, different cultural influences, religious beliefs, attitudes towards different foreign cultures integrated inside the country and the behavior showed towards its acceptance.
Nevertheless, the American population in general values the most individuality and freedom, privacy, equality, value and respect of each other use of time, assertiveness. The most influential philosophical theory that still in many ways prevails in the American people is the Stuart’s Mill utilitarism who believed in the theory of equality and liberalism. He thought the higher the good, shall belong to the greater commonality. (most of the people); freedom of election, freedom of action and property is a significant issue to him, as long as the ownership of the item harms none; there is a definite limit among persons, for John Stuart Mill that never should be trespassed: that is the own person (the body) and their thinking (that is called today the fixism).
