It's actually kjnd of the opposite: America has the dominant culture going back generations. It's just that culture is very materialistic, so people try to find something deeper. That's my theory anyway. Besides, most of us are immigrants and I think a lot of Americans want some connection to their place of origin.
Hm, maybe. I know that de Tocqueville found Americans to be obsessed with money in the 1830's. Nothing seems to have changed in the past 200 years in that regard. 🤔
