American history may be thought of as a series of conflicts between two
opposing American impulses:protecting individual liberty and unifying as a
nation. For instance, social programs like Medicare and Social Security have
brought health care and financial relief to many, but opponents have argued
that they come at too high a cost in taxes. It seems that, for Americans, a
better life and the protection of one's own welfare are desires in constant
conversation. What is the main idea of this paragraph?
A. The desire for individual liberty is a uniquely American desire.
B. Unity and individual rights have been constant themes in American
history.
C. Many people resent high taxes that fund social programs.
D. Overcoming the desire to protect individual rights has made
America successful.
