How do you view america? (american people)

[big_bad_buff]

you can use one word or go on a rant, i just want to know what you think about america, the american people, and where america is headed.

Decadence, thats all i can think of

One word, Empire...


Rant, basic math....understand entitlements, regulation and how it impacts the economy. The role of the Fed government was enumerated by the constitution because the founders wanted to limit the role of Federal power intentionally, which has been eroded over time via the federal courts, legislature and presidency....they all seek more power while subjugating the states and local governments which are most in touch with the pulse of the populace. I'm just a crazy libertarian leaning person so disregard all I post as crazy talk.

does this mean you're done posting under solarclimax?

 

[nimbus]

definitely not decadence. this is an achievement-driven nation

Americans are great people who are severely addicted on entitlements and spending. We'll steadily decline unless we can break the addiction.

 

[Crocodome]

Compromised.

I strongly agree with this, entitlement, spending paired up with wanting everything here and now is what's really fucking up society...

Pretty obvious to me, that with the "I want everything free!" attitude, and with the business world being taxed so hard as to have to go to Mexico or China to afford any labor due to union greed and fraudulent lawsuits, etc etc., we're headed for the toilet fast. And since our great hero Saint Obama the lawyer is going to save us all his way, at least the suffering will be shorter before we go under.

Our government was built for primary defense and the postal service, now the government controls every aspect of our daily lives. I think its time the people showed who works for who.
