This is not going to make the Americans happy ...

I see the latest country happiness survey results are out!
And I also see those high taxing, socialist learning, pesky scandanavian countries are topping the list again.

well some of us "Americans" live by what we actually see
Like Vets told the Government is not longer paying them to stay in college
Child care and insurance cut on children and the elderly
Cut backs or bankruptcy in major chains that have been around forever
even stores like Winn Dixie and ToysRUs
While some markets are reported to be booming, the ones close to home are closing
Even health Care,, a job always secure ,now no one wants the Jobs so incentives like free homes and utilities are being offered to attract new people to the field
Police officer and Troopers retiring and a shortage as no one wants the jobs
Way to many police officers dying in the line of duty
To little pay ,to little respect and they all pay for the actions of a few .
No dear ,Only the ones buying the hype and polls may be disappointed
Some of us live in the real world and have no blinder
We were worried and sad long before any reports came out

@ozgirl512 Statistics show we lost our way somewhere around 1980
We have been on a moral and ethical decline since
To much attention to pleasure and entertainment
and less on family and personal conduct ,Kids are out of control
I personally think it was before that ,
But I have believed it was going to get worse for a long time
and I have tried to prepare my family for what ever is coming
We all have walked through the fire ,
We just pray faith an experience are enough .but
We try not to count on our own strengths anymore
there are way to many things beyond our control .
We know we are getting closer to something
We have never been treated so crappy for trying to do good before
Now days even helping people ,,they think you have an ulterior motive
Told were to nice ,no one can really be like this
Yea were getting close
When you are hated for doing good ,told this feel to touchy feely
yea the world had definitely flipped up side down
