One year from now we'll be just as screwed as we are now if not worse. I have no confidence in our political 'leaders' anymore and haven't for some time.

 

This country is a shell of it's former self. Was the former self perfect? No, but it wasn't infested with a bunch of butt hurt people who would rather have everything spoon fed and given to them than to actually think for themselves or work for what they want. It's full of people who will roll over in the same of 'peace and safety' while the government slowly erodes our rights and freedoms. A criminal is able to run for POTUS and people hail her because she's a female and democrat. Healthcare is now a LAW and we are penalized by the IRS if we don't have coverage. Crying out loud, we have a Socialist running for POTUS and people don't blink an eye.

 

There are so many things wrong with this country and no one seems to care as long as they have the latest iphone or 70 inch flat screen or whatever. It makes one weep for the future. And for those who want to say 'same stuff, different generation' I call BC. Back in the day we were short-sighted because we had only newspapers and network TV to tell us what we needed to know. Now we have the world at our fingertips and we are still just as short-sighted because we're willfully ignorant of what we don't want to know. We only listen to what we want to hear and that's not just stupid but also dangerous.
