America has alway been a dream because you have to be asleep to believe in it. Americans need to wake up and smell the coffee we have always been Bad. Just gods at hiding it.
If the toupe'd cheeto wanted to really confuse us, he would force the US to adopt metric, end daylight savings, give representation to the inhabited US territories, etc. If he fixed enough stuff, maybe his detractors would be more conflicted over his heinous human rights violations.
Regime change the US. A complete redo of everything. New constitution and new bill of rights with teeth for enforcement. no billionates and strict ethic policys. They are then given a reminder with a gun pointed at them.... reminding them that You work for Americans not billionaires and you will be executed for treason if you go against the will of the people
The dollar is about to be removed as the world's reserve currency. Every empire has its fall. The consolation is knowing that the fall of the US will be blamed on bad leadership.
Until we remove corporations from politics, we're fucked. money buys elections and corporations are legally allowed/encouraged to be psychopaths. You can't arrest or jail a corporation so it's largely immune to any consequences. which means it's a race to the bottom to see who can make the most money while everyone else pays the price.
I agree with most things you say. Now take it one step further. Owning anything in a globalized society is basically madness and results in... *vaguely gestures everywhere...* everybody should be fed, housed and have basic luxury. Profit is a crime against ourselves and nature.
Not just the corporations either. We have private individuals with the wealth to buy entire elections. Get the money out of the system and start taxing the ultra wealthy hard.
The amount of money they spend to keep control should tell us how scared they are of losing that control. We need an actual progressive party that support EOing all sorts of corrections to the corruption we are seeing currently. We need guard rails, term limits, audits and transparency, now.
Agree, we should be on the metric system. They tried to push it in the 60s, but American automakers weren't budging. Neither were the building trades.
I'd also overturn Citizens United, reinstate Roe v. Wade as law of the land, criminalize stock trading for anyone holding public office, enact anti-trust legislation that stops corporations from merging into monopolistic juggernauts, enact & enforce anti-nepotism legislation, reinstate the Fairness Doctrine & get Rupert Murdoch/ Fox off the air.
Can't fit it all into 500 char limit, but there's plenty more. Mandatory 4wk vacation/yr. & 1yr maternity leave. Mandatory paid sick leave. Single-payer healthcare for all. College should be paid for, so should childcare if the parents both want to work. Public schools should be fully funded & actually educate people. Postal Svc is not a for-profit business! Prison reform so they aren't enslaving people at a profit EVER AGAIN. Real nations who care about their citizens all have this stuff.
Ever see those "if only 'x' demographic votes this is the outcome" Maps?" For those that haven't if only white people vote it's always a red wave. Sooooo as long as white people are the majority demographic/majority voting bloc NOTHING WILL GET BETTER. Their apathy and willful ignorance is the problem.
Not just what "He's" done. It's after the American People elected him twice and haven't had the honour, dignity or backbone to remove him, even as he sets fire to the world. The world will not trust or respect the Americans for generations.
Oh, that will take a century+ before we see improvement on that front. What I meant was there is zero chance of us undoing just the last 15 months in the next 50 years.
I have a stalker with multiple accounts who comes after all my comments, sometimes within 20 seconds of posting. Been like this for years. Not a bot though. That's been confirmed. Just be careful, they have targeted others here who agreed with me on anything. That's how much I seem to live rent free in their Maga head. A new Imgurian (RazzaTheBazza) got targeted a few days ago this way, and it was their first day here.
Especially if we don't fix the system that produced him. Trump should never have set foot in public office. The media is compromised, our system is broken, the billionaire and wannabe billionaire class has us in a headlock. And if we don't fix it now it'll be too late I fear.
We have to get corporate money and foreign investors out of politics. Our representatives are supposed to represent the majority - not 4 billionaires and Israel.
Agreed. Even if trump kicked the bucket today we'd still have the sociopathic, treasonous, cowards of the republican party to contend with. And even if they they all got in a spaceship and GTFO our planet tonight we'd still have the sackless, bought out, phony liberals of the DNC. And even if they all walked into the ocean carrying anvils we'd still have billionaires, bullshit MSM, and the semi-sentient hemorrhoids who voted for that Treasonous Rapist UnAmerican Moronic Pedophile. And so on
That'd be great. I went back to school in my 30s and honestly think most people should do it. It's just a great refresher and update and gives one a wider perspective I think. And yeah, a lot of people in this country are virtually illiterate and/or brainwashed.
As an American living in Texas, but grew up in Western New York, hanging with Canadians all the time and knowing the lyrics to both anthems… I am also embarrassed; apologies.

America hasn’t been great since Reagan fucked everything up.

One or two wars more should do the trick.

Don't be embarrassed, be ashamed. All American citizens are responsible for what's happening,. You created it, it's your responsibility to stop it.

America has never been "great", and it never will be. Just varying degrees of shit.

look metric would be good- but we got some more important shit to clean up right now

Ever see that scene in the dark knight rises where they start sentencing the rich to death? Start there, but with politicians and judges.

#2: Maximum age for future presidents.
No salary and no donations or bribes.
Jailtime or the gallows if they fuck around as much as trump.
Bonus:Metric system

The US is on the metric system and has been since the 70s. American automakers build using the metric system so that's a bizarre thing to bring up.

Germany did alright after WW2 but they were occupied for just over 50 years and also they had Nuremberg and swiftly executed the criminals

They also learned from their history and teach it to their children, so it doesn't get repeated.

How is this down voted? They teach their kids better than the US does. They still have issues of course.
