Some people speak as if the country is either in ruins, heading in that direction, or everything's fine. Where would you place the current status of this nation? Why?
The United States is hardly in shambles whether people like the country's leadership or not.
With the advent of the media and Internet, world news and happenings are more widely reported and reach a larger audience than ever before. We are probably much better off than ever before if you look back at US History.
The whole world is experiencing challenges or turmoil at the moment, whether it's political or economic.
There is always room for improvement in our state of affairs but to say it is in ruins or turmoil? No, the US isn't.
The system is wicked, filthy and corrupt as China, Russia or any other Oligarchy. If you look closely, you will see the symptoms of this festering sickness........and it WILL become more and more obvious in the future.
All you have to do is travel and open your eyes - like I said in post #8. Look at the graffiti, the broken windows, fore sale signs, un-mowed lawns, litter, cracked pavement, potholes, bridges in disrepair, and permanently parked rusting vehicles.
It is not difficult to see that we are on a downhill spiral. Then look at our debt - both personal and National!
People watch republican news and we all Know republicans have nothing good to say about a thing as long as a Democrat is president. ( especially a black one) we've seen the missteps of the Republicans constantly trying to correct something that slips out in a debate or conversation. Republicans aren't giving us many facts because they don't seem to have many.
I want to keep social security and the EPA. Yes, even the IRS. Republicans are only outraged when it comes to women's rights.( They don't want women to have any) they don't mind letting corporations do whatever they want in the name of business. God forbid people want some rights, until Americans think for themselves and quit letting republican tv or radio influence them, we will never bring the country together. We also need to seriously get religion out of politics. Quit pandering to the evangelicals. Most are phony anyway.

Is America in shambles?
