U.S.A. - Should We Scrap the Whole Thing?

Maybe just start over again from scratch... Rename the states, redraw the borders, write a new constitution, build a new capitol. Everything fresh and new! Wouldn't it be nice to have that new country smell again?

I 100% believe in TOTAL reform for the U.S.

@DearAmbellina2113 You obviously don't believe in what the US stood for for the last couple hundred years

@xp47rb I believe that the Constitution has been shit on since the George W. Bush administration, and has been increasingly ignored ever since.

The ideals this country was founded with have rotted from the inside. We need to start fresh with new eyes and new ideals that propel us forward rather than keeping us in the dark ages.

@xp47rb Well, that's just it. The USA has stood for a variety of things over the years. Some good, some great, some not so good, and some quite shameful.

@DearAmbellina2113 BUSH...??? The Constitution has been under attack since before the ink was dry on the parchment. It only survived this long on it's own strength and resiliance.

@DearAmbellina2113 Maybe you should just leave and find somewhere that suits your ideas better. There isn't any shortage of people trying to come here to live and most of them don't want the nanny state some are trying to turn us into.

@xp47rb oh so you agree that if someone doesn't like their country, they should be free to move to one they do like?

@DearAmbellina2113 You have the freedom to leave. Not everyone in the world has that freedom. Whether anyplace else wants you is another issue.

@xp47rb I think it should be easier to leave your birth country and live somewhere else. Imagine how much less conflict there would be worldwide.

@DearAmbellina2113 There are malcontents everywhere. Most countries aren't real thrilled about people who don't contribute and are against their way of life. Some are pretty oppressive with such people. No one really wants them.
