I was in Detroit last weekend. It is simply stunning to see the thousands of abandoned houses and factories. It shows what liberalism would have in store for all of us, given the chance.
That’s why I’m staying, for better or worse… Plus, being 60, I’m almost done anyway.
I'm in pretty much the same boat. One of the benefits of being old is that I won't have to deal with the dumpster fire created by liberals/progs for very long. I worry for youngsters though, but my sympathy for them is offset by the fact that they are happily throwing fuel onto the fire. When the fire burns down, they'll all be standing around slack-jawed in the smoldering ashes wondering what happened, then find some way to blame it on Boomers.
What is it with these pessimistic threads about America?
We survived the Great Depression where Millions lost their Jobs & Banks were insolvent & 9/11 which was an actual attack on our Soil.
There was No Welfare or Social Security or FDIC back then.
The Soup kitchens of today are for our Homeless who are not the majority of us.
Our Nation is at peace and not involved in any Wars.
Un Employment is at a 50 year low.
We emerged from a Global Pandemic that100 years ago would have paralyzed most Nations for a decade.
Exactly. ^ That's called American Exceptionalism!!! You get it!
Glad to see the left starting to recognize that we live in the greatest nation in the history of Mankind.
2nd place is so incredibly far back from us, it's not even close.
If we 'sink' the rest of the world is likely in total and complete chaos and in ruins.
If America sinks, the rest of the world is in deep trouble.
The global powers that be will not allow that to happen until and unless something beyond their control (climate, depletion of natural resources) takes place.
