i was thinking about discussion of whether america is exceptional.
we are not aryans. so, how are we exceptional?
perhaps we were exceptional - rich, lucky, high standard of living, peaceful borders, social-political system seemed to work. our huge middle class had it very good compared to rest of world.
now, we don't have best medical, educational, life expectancy, wealth, standard of living, etc.
we don't know languages. we don't know math, science. we don't compete.
our government is a mess. our culture is pathetic. we act stupidly. we do not enforce drug or immigration laws. our justice system is not working. many get things from government - money, food, housing, medical, nursing home, education and more. and many corporations and rich get benefits that are absurd. many groups are favored. politicians are corrupt and/or make fortunes when they leave government.
many others are paying for all of this. |
