A quote from "One Nation, Slightly Divisible" stood out to me. The quote states that "In my world the easiest way to categorize people is by headroom needs". The quote stated above made me wonder about the Blue side of America's way of living. People who live in rural society in America like objects and material to be much bigger. Examples such as big truck with huge tires, big houses, and go to huge cathedrals for sanctuaries. According to Red America, bigger is better. Bigger material is surprisingly cheaper in the rural areas of the United States than those of urban areas. Less people are in the rural areas, therefore, little demand for the item.
I relate to the red part of America. I live in a urban community. I enjoy fast food, malls, and technology. Red America is referring to the cities of America. My hometown is Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Philadelphia is a big city with lights, traffic, fashion trends, and social media fanatics. Social media such as twitter and instagram are very popular. The use of hashtags is unbelievable. Another thing people of red America find fun to enjoy is also memes. Memes are jokes or puns based off of real life situations that showcased in a picture. also, people of red America enjoy restaurants whether its fast food or not. In the city, people majority eat fast food. Fast food is quick to get and eat as people head for work in the morning.
