Well, I wouldn't even say the USA really has "equal values" yet.
It needs to be pointed out there two kinds of equality, when people in the US or even Europe speak of "eqality"; there is equal rights and then there is equal status. Unless the US converts to communism or socialism there will never be equal status, but there is(at least on paper ) a strving for everyone to have equal rights. Equal rights is having the same oppurtinity for education, jobs, etc, leading to an inequal distribution of titles, wealth, and resources. Social inequality is a product of unequal intelligence, capacity, work ethic, and motivation, just as much as it is a product of discrimintion against minorities.
"Equality" is, if you ask me, pretty much a fanstasy and daydream. We can strive for equal rights, and Im all for that, because fair is fair, but this shouldnt be confused with what socialists call "equality".
