The USA has lost its way...

What used to be the greatest nation on earth, one which stood up for democracy, defeated fascist dictators, led the world in human rights, had champions like Robert F Kennedy for the downtrodden and disadvantaged of society - is no longer democratic, no longer a leader in human rights and it tramples on the downtrodden and disadvantaged in society..

How can I say this about what used to once be the greatest nation on earth?

1. The USA is singularly a nation where the minority of people with guns have veto power over the majority who want protection from guns.

2. The USA is alone among industrialized nations with its rate of incarceration.

3. The USA is almost alone among industrialized nations (Japan being the other one) that employs the death penalty

4. The USA is ALONE among industrialized nations in having just banned protection for a Woman's right to an abortion allowing about half the states to ban the procedure.

Support for the integrity of the US Supreme Court - one third of the power structure under the constitution has dropped below 25%.. The swing votes on the Roe Vs. Wade overturn - to a person swore that they would uphold the law and that it was settled.. they LIED... they have no integrity, NONE... no credibility ... none.. and this has and will taint all credibility the court seeks going forward ... until these life time appointments end by way of resignation or death.

The USA is indeed past its best days, it is in decline and with it goes the hope of the world.. It is indeed a sad thing to behold and witness.

@AthrillatheHunt I think Clarence Thomas should never have been confirmed... His Wife is insane... The USA should have listened to Anita Hill....
