obmepaxobligation--peacetime mil service-men
Text of this Question or Item
308. And one last question. We all know that American citizens 
have certain rights. For example, they have the right to free 
public education and to police protection, the right to attend 
religious services of their choice, and the right to elect 
public officials. I'd like to ask now about certain obligations 
that some people feel American citizens owe their country. I 
just want your own opinion on these - whether you feel it is a 
very important obligation, a somewhat important obligation, or 
not an obligation that a citizen owes to the country. g. How 
about, for young men, serving in the military during peacetime?

Government Responsibility

helppoorshould govt improve standard of living?
Text of this Question or Item
309. I'd like to talk with you about issues some people tell us 
are important. Please look at card BC. Some people think that 
the government in Washington should do everything possible to 
improve the standard of living of all poor Americans; they are 
at point 1 on this card. Other people think itis not the 
government's responsibility, and that each person should take 
care of himself; they are at point 5. a. Where would you place 
yourself on this scale, or haven't you made up your mind on 
this?

helpnotshould govt do more or less?
Text of this Question or Item
310. Please look at card BD. Some people think that the 
government in Washington is trying to do too many things that 
should be left to individuals and private busienss; they are at 
point 5 on this card. Others disagree and think that the 
government should do even more to solve our country's problems; 
they are at point 1. a. Where would you place yourself on this 
scale, or haven't you made up your mind on this?

helpsickshould govt help pay for medical care?
Text of this Question or Item
311. Look at card BE. In general, some people think that it is 
the responsibility of the government in Washington to see to it 
that people have help in paying for doctors and hospital bills; 
they are at point 1. Others think that these matters are not the 
responsibility of the federal government and that people should 
take care of these things themselves; they are at point 5. a. 
Where would you place yourself on this scale, or haven't you 
made up your mind on this?

Text of this Question or Item
312. Now look at card BF. Some people think that 
(blacks/negroes/African-Americans) have been discriminated 
against for so long that the government has a special obligation 
to help improve their living standards; they are at point 1. 
Others believe that the government should not be giving special 
treatment to (blacks/negroes/African-Americans); they are at 
point 5. a. Where would you place yourself on this scale, or 
haven't you made up your mind on this?
