The U.S. is currently going through a period of political and social upheaval. I think this country is worth saving. Along with the bad there is also much good. We can get inspiration from great leaders from our past,
"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
President Abraham Lincoln
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
President John F. Kennedy
"May I stress the need for courageous, intelligent, and dedicated leadership... Leaders of sound integrity. Leaders not in love with publicity, but in love with justice. Leaders not in love with money, but in love with humanity. Leaders who can subject their particular egos to the greatness of the cause."
@badminton I agree with every word of your post. But sadly its not the whole story. America has lived beyond its means in the world for decades and has squandered the abundance of being a great and powerful nation. The who and how can be debared. But the fact is that close to $40 Trillion is owed to the rest of the world, and the nation is weakening and unpopular in spite of this. You can blame whoever you want. The debt continues to rise year on year. Sooner or later those IOUs are going to be called in. And I am unsure how much Amerioca will be left once they are paid.😷
