Try making some sense. Exactly what are you talking about?

@Strictgram Moving forward such as improving education, healthcare, infrastructure, and eliminating economic inequality rather than spending money to build more prisons and more wars would be a good start in moving forward.

Ending human rights violations that the U.S. is currently doing at the Southern border and Guantanamo bay.

The intermix of church and state in the U.S. is another issue that sets the U.S. back.

@SW-User You sound like a socialist but that's ok. You'll get smarter as you age. We wouldn't need prisons if people didn't commit crimes. Income will never be equal. Some believe in education, hard work and marriage. Others favor drugs, alcohol and fatherless homes. Sorry nirvana is not possible.

@Strictgram Good job you proved my point.

@SW-User You have no valid points. I hope it's Bernie against Trump. Which dem pygmy do you support?

@Strictgram Ignorance at its best. Plenty of Innocent people are placed in prison serving a life sentence for something they did not do and are released after a decade or so. But lets ignore that fact and place them all as criminals.

I hope so too. America is done with a wannabe mobster like Trump.
