cultural differences. To each their own. If you don't like this culture, don't move here. Don't attempt to force your culture onto the united states.
I agree with some of your points and disagree with others. Personally I think that we should have single payer health care and make it easier for people to become citizens.. I believe they should have to speak and write the english language to become a citizen and have a skill that could be of use to society. I don't believe in letting in refugees which we have to house and pay for or to let any old person in who doesn't even know our language and has no plans to assimilate to our culture but rather sends all their money back to their host country.
There's nothing wrong with guns. They are a tool used for self defense and as a hobby. Perhaps we should have mandatory safety training to own them, however... but the left is not interested in safety training... they want to ban them. Thus we have them, and I'm glad to have them. They protect me, and those around me, from the criminals the left likes to give a slap on the wrist and send back out to the streets thinking they can be rehabilitated.
The age of consent is 16 because although it's a genetic urge to procreate at puberty, in modern society it does not make sense and we don't need old perverts going after women under 18... nothing good can come from older men preying on teenagers and those of limited life experience. Personally I think men over 30 shouldn't be allowed to have sex with women under 21, men between 21 and 29 can go down to say age 17, and men under 21 should be able to go down to age 14.. that would make more common sense then the way we do it today where a 19 year old can become a "sex offender" for having sex with a 15 year old, which is stupid.
You are correct health care is expensive here. Part of that is we lead the innovation of new technologies and new drug development. I'm not sure what the solution here is. Single payer will just distribute the costs out to everyone unless you cap costs... right now lots of low income people do qualify for medicaid and other services, so it's not like people are out in the streets and dying.. that just isn't happening.
Having a strong military with a nuke stockpile is good. I don't trust human nature and certainly don't trust other leaders in nations like China. I also like R&D into Nasa and other programs that might get us off this planet, personally.
College is expensive because partly of supply and demand.. nobody forces people to pay for these private collages when people could go to a local, less expensive school. I'm not sure I believe that we should foot the cost of colleges.. those who do really well in high school and excel in their grades likely get scholarships anyways. Companies like to bring in foreign labor anyways because they can pay them less. Overall I don't believe paying for college for someone who's just going to use the time to party is up and not going to get a degree which excels their career forward is an efficient use of tax dollars. A lot of these degrees are useless and straddle students in debt because liberal high school counselors put down the "trades" and encourage all these art degrees.. these counselors need to promote industries that are in demand and have shortages and pay well.. by promoting liberal feelgoodism or snubbing their nose at mechanics, electricians, plumbers, welders, etc. they are doing these students a disservice.
If strange men are allowed to be in your changing room, blame the liberals for that. lol.. there is no real genders anymore.. men are women and women are men.
Stick built homes are a cost effective way to provide housing.. you don't need to make them from concrete. They've proven they can stand a long time and tornados are quite rare... when they do occur, that's what insurance is for. As for earthquakes, those areas design buildings better anyways. Modern stick built homes with weatherproof exteriors, well maintained, will last a very long time.
For the most part the racism you mention about whites is not very common.. in fact other races or cultures harping on whites is far more common.. especially black on white racism. My advice would be to have a thick skin and stop caring what other people think. Negative thoughts by another person is more about them then it is about you. Feel sorry for them for having so much hate in their heart.
Nobody's tapping your phone unless they suspect you of pedophila, drug dealing, or being a murderer... what do I need potassium nitrate for? Some of these items are not very applicable to our culture.
Not sure what you're trying to imply with some of the things like the hot in arizona, cold in alaska.. yes that's true.
