15. "Big Brother Knows Best"
The "Leave it to Beaver" vision of America. Women do not work outside the home. Men wear ties, even when they mow the lawn. Kids are well behaved and don't speak unless given permission by their parents. Dad is the ultimate authority in the home and mom is subserviant to him. Society is segrigated so "white America" won't come in contact with any diverse cultures or "lower classes." Everyone lives in houses that look the same, they do the same activities, go to the same churches, and it is forbiden to ask questions. Everyone assumes the government knows best.
