Choose one issue or idea that is considered a taboo in American political culture but that, in your opinion, needs to be talked about more often. Why do you think this issue or idea is currently not addressed, and how likely is this to change?

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

An ideal response will:
1, Discuss an issue considered taboo by American political culture, for example, socialized medical care or national health insurance and its conflict with the creed of individualism, and explain why it needs more discussion.
2, Explain why our adherence to an aspect of the American creed, for example, our belief in the superiority of the creed and how it engenders suspicions about new or competing ideas, prevents its discussion.
3, Discuss how likely it is that the issue will one day be addressed, given the overall dynamic nature of political culture.
