America was a wonderful place, founded by some very intelligent men in 1776. It was a place where you could make a good life for yourself, learn and grow and share in the prosperity, if you were willing to work, and Americans were the hardest, smartest workers in the world. It was a place where government served the people instead of itself. It was a place with moral values, where money and "things" weren't the be all, end all. Sadly it ceased to exist somewhere in the mid to late 1980's. This place, today, is NOT America, thus the k.

Isn't it sad that those that raise their right hand and swear "to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America" are usually the ones most likely to trash it. |

Chesterfield, MO | I agree with much of what you say but I'm not sure it's all the government's fault. Man's inherent selfish ways are at the root of all failures -- whether that be in the church, the government or in the corporate board room. To that end, both religion and corporate selfishness attempt to sculpt government to give them at least a temporary advantage. However, I'll still repeat what Churchill said, "It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried." Although I too am angry about all the crazy things that go on in this country, so far America is still the best place to be on this planet. |
