Nobody 'decides' which values are proper in the sense of someone laying down a law and the rest being bound to follow. American values have evolved over hundreds of years and culminated into ones which brought America to its pinnacle of power and influence around the world. I don't know. It may be my imagination or cynicism, but I get the feeling that America's core values have shown signs of slipping lately.

This is an interesting article you may like to look at:

Key American Values
Tiny I was not thinking about a set of values which pertain to a specific area ie: the States. I was thinking more in the line of a world wide standard. I think thats what he's trying to get at. Could be wrong though.:)
