How great is America, scale of 1-10

[NoVote]

I was born the year after WW2 was over, so I have been aware of how it WAS and how it IS. The way it was after the war, there was very little division, if any. Today, I see civil war coming. There are still a huge number of people that do not want nor about to put up with socialism or anything like it, and it does NOT take millions of people to start or fight a war. In fact, just a few thousand people could put this country out of business for a long time. It would be so much better if the people that don't like America would just leave, before your forced to.

Under the Great Obama, we were a 10

Under Trump, maybe a 3

Canada is greater, by far.

Then go there. Trouble is they have an immigration system based on merit so you probably couldn't get in. Try North Korea maybe. If you like great leaders so much, try theirs.

So their leader is greater than ours?

Not now but maybe last administration though. It was getting hard to tell them apart but thankfully they were color coded to avoid confusion.

Since electing Trump, we are a global laughing stock

Makes us about a 3

This generation will make this country a 20 out of 10. Their intelligence, work ethic, and technological skills will only enhance America's limitless greatness.

You need a refund on that reefer you got there, pal.

I said '9' because we still have the best nation on Earth, a great Federali gubermint, though it has some issues with political appointees, and the best looking women, especially my wife.

The rest is just icing on the cake.

I would also say three, but that did not change from ten under Obama, perhaps not even any change at all. If there was a change. It was from 3.01 to 3.

During the campaign Obama correctly said that the Constitution says what the Government can’t do to you. Then like every administration since Wilson, struggled to find exceptions to those limits. You can’t violate the Fourth Amendment, unless.....

Those exceptions are what is really dragging our country down into the Orwellian nightmare we see on the horizon. Only you blame Trump, Republicans, and Conservatives. The truth is both sides are doing it. And neither side wants the other side to have access to the machine they both built.

Franz Kafka wrote books warning us, and we are in the middle of the book, and demanding more of it, for them. Not us of course, them.

Bush spies on us. Congress got outraged at these violations, and passed laws allowing the spying to punish someone. Obama campaigned against the excesses, and embraced them ten seconds after getting sworn in. Trump pointed them out, now he is the Wizard at the helm, now of course, the power is good. Unless you don’t like Trump, at which time the abusive power that Trump had was perfectly acceptable while being welded by Obama.

We'd be a nine ,+ if we could get rid of your kind.

No, we would be a two. Both sides are wrong.
