      Americans aren’t taught to think.

      Your statement is not true. Proof: I think you’re right. But I’m American so I must be wrong because I wasn’t taught to think. If I’m wrong that you’re right, then you must be wrong. QED.

      Depends on the area, and community. It’s probably more accurate to say most Americans aren’t taught to think critically of the status quo.
