I think the mid-terms will be the moment that becomes clear to everyone here.

They've spent so long in comfortably distracting cages they have no idea what to do about anything.

Agreed. I'm an American. I'm not going to sit here and pretend the country did things right in the world, but along with all the bad is the counter balance of the US dollar and world stabilization through world trade. It was economic diplomacy. Again, this is just a statement of observation and not an endorsement. We're dead and we just don't know it yet. Our world credibility is at an all time low, our military is depleted, our reserves are depleting, food scarcity is on the rise and our debt has balloon with the guardrails and safety nets that we spent 100 years developing being gutted and undermined.

I never thought I would see it in my lifetime. It's devastating. I don't say that asking for sympathy. I've seen enough of what happens on the world stage to understand that such things are deserved in one way or another.

I hope that in the history books, people will understand that no country is a monolith, and that our greatest failures on the whole was not malice but inaction as a response to our leaders' complete disregard for our wishes.

Yes but they didn't do it because they're evil. Let's not ignore the material reality that causes their interests to align with power accumulation. That's a systemic issue. You can have good people in power and in the current system the end point is the same. We need socialism.

It's easy to get rid of America.

Just do it.

There is so little America in my life right now it's almost embarrassing.
