I would agree that the OP paints a pretty sad picture.
There is much we don't know about the situation that would be good to know before reaching any final conclusions.
In general, society has to ask itself what it wants.
Society wants Soviet style total control. In prison, and it centrally heated dorms, all others prohibited.
I don't believe that is the case generally. Otherwise, we'd have it.
We don't.
We have Donald Trump as a reaction to those who would take us in that direction.
I agree, but luckily the USA elections are never decided by popular vote but by electoral college. If it was by popular vote, then only Clinton would be on the ballot, because new york city and Los Angeles would always decide everything. So luckily, America doesn't have to elect what society wants. Otherwise it would already be Soviet Union 2.0.
Yes, that is the case.
But we did elect Brack Obama....twice.
And we seemed to decide that we didn't like that.
Clinton's 3 million advantage means nothing to me.
What I found significant was that rust belts states turned red.....
Have to wonder if they now get bashed like other red states (do they suddenly start taking more tax dollars than they produce ?)
