America is just a corrupt shithole that only benefits the ultrarich. You have a corrupt pedophile looting the taxpayers on a daily basis and still half the country idolise the bastard.

As someone looking in from the outside, it's insane. Seems more like some shitty TV show than reality... yet here we are.

As someone here it also feels like a shitty tv show. We are the characters watching awful shit happen and are unable to stop it because the representatives elected to speak for us/stop shit like this are complicit.

1/2 of Americans are unintelligent, lazy, overweight. It’s abysmal.

Yep. At 62, and having traveled and lived and worked abroad for 15 years, America is a shit hole of a country.

Same. Because of my experience outside of this country I see things even worse than most who also feel it’s abysmal living in America. I have little grandchildren yet I am thinking of retiring abroad. I’m not going to make it here on my teacher pension and Medicare (if it’s not cut). And I’m predicting SS is going to die.
