In this clip it discusses topics on political culture and all the ways the government is involved with the people in the US. It talks about how political culture influences people and their own beliefs with politics. There are two sides, one talking about everyone taking care of themselves and the other is the government taking care of any individual and their families. One argument in the video was that not all people are born into the same social classes. So how would the government take care of family in America. This video also talks about the “rule of law” and how every place needs a laws. Another topic this video touched on was money and how the government or people as owners should be able to displace it. Health care is also a big topic in this video. It talked about how health care either affordable for everyone no matter their income or should only high income be able to get good health care.

This assignment was honestly was a challenge for me. I’m still trying to get the hang of politics. I’m not too confident in this assignment, so if you never use it that’s okay!
