In America, because of its intensely individualistic economic, social, religious, and political systems, these same systems are "let off the hook", so to speak, for their successes, but especially their failures.
Instead, individuals are credited for their successes, and blamed for their failures-both by themselves and by society at large.
My general question here is: Why? What makes America so individualistic, relatively speaking, and compared to other countries and cultures? Why are the aforementioned systems so individualistic?
