The US should adopt the British honors system

To understand why the United States of America (USA) does not require the honours (please spell it the British way if you're going to refer to a British tradition) system of the United Kingdom (UK), one must first realise the vastness of cultural inconsistency between the two nations. One is a land of European cowboys slaughtering native Americans to shreds in the name of racial dominance turning into the world's foremost melting pot of all cultures and races, it is the epitome of irony in every single way. The other is a land of Royalists that has had knights, referred to as 'sires' (yes that's spelt right and pronounced how it's spelt) and had al high class women referred to as 'madams' (stemming from the French word 'madame'). Needless to say, the terms 'sir' and 'dame' came form these and, what my opponent forgot to mention, is that there is a second level of honour that is now the same for both men and women and allows power in court decisions and law passing; the title of 'lord'. USA has a completely different legal system to the UK and the people of that nation are proud to have a very dissimilar ethos to that of the British.America is fundamentally by the people, for the people, in every single way imaginable. They vote in a President and their soldiers, police force and all emergency services do it in the name of the President and his/her people, not in the name of someone born into automatic, divinely attributed, power. In Britain, one pledges allegiance to the Queen/King of the time and the entire nation revolves around this tradition held onto so desperately despite Britain almost entirely democratic apart from this one sentimental aspect of their culture. Thus, it is clear that to be 'knighted' by the Queen would be an honour to the British since it is a culture that clings desperately onto a far outdated tradition for the futile hope that this will somehow preserve the nation in some shape or form. If anything, the British should be getting rid of the honour's system due its lack of contextual validity in today's society rather than America beginning to adopt such an irrational system of honouring the successful.The American dream is not to serve the Queen to death and beyond, nor even the President. It's to get the big house, the fast car and the family that love and adore you. Thus, their priorities, culturally, are not comparable what the British ones and there is no parallel to draw between the two societies to insinuate that the honour's system belongs in the USA. It does not fill an American with patriotic warmth or pride to undergo a British ceremony that is based upon terms used to regard the British knights and ladies of high class. This is, after all, the only purpose for the honour's system to her than the legal authority of lords, which my opponent must prove are required in USA's legal system.In conclusion, there is no reason whatsoever that the honour's system should be adopted in USA and many cultural, practical and historic reasons, from the Medieval wars of Britain, why USA having it would defeat the purpose of its origin which I have proven to be Patriotism.Relevant sources Sir and Dame origin: http://blog.dictionary.com...
