The last line says it all- "America is not the greatest country in the world anymore"- and there's a reason for that.
In the last sixty years- the entitlement state has grown, freedom and liberty has shrunk. Sixty years ago we had ony 1/10 of the regulations on businesses. Sixty years ago we had much smaller government, which demanded a much smaller chunk of our labor's earnings. At all levels, the local, state and federal levels of taxes, fees, restrictions, regulations and requirements have expanded while opportunity has been reduced.
Both republicans and democrats are responsible for this- but I place much more of the overall share on the left, who have perpetuated that more of all those things were better- and the fact is that they were wrong.
And to this day they refuse to acknowledge it.
At least some republicans are waking up- but the left is forever lost in a socialist pipedream that has destroyed America as we once knew it.
And the further we head towards true capitalism the farther down we will fall. It is the people that make a country great, not the corporations, not the politicians, but we the people.
Interesting video...actually agree with a bunch of what he said. I think his first statistics are the cause of a vast majority of our problems. Our education system is failing us...greatly. Until we fix that (and we obviously disagree on how to do so) we fail.
Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!
You think it's our education system that caused all this- versus the reasons I posted?
I would disagree that we are not educated- unless you are referring to the liberal indoctrination that has occured over the last 3 generations.
I think this whole mess has been caused by a collectivist society & government creep that has taken place over the last 60 years. It was the classic frog in a pot of water senerio- we're just about cooked.
Ooooo "liberal indoctrination"?!?! You, of course, have a link for that....
I think "liberal indoctrination" is anything that doesn't qualify as "teaPublican" indoctrination... The only problem is they can't find enough institutions to teach junk-science, creationism, and moral-substitutes for knowledge and facts.
