Bumper sticker slogans for solutions are what is responsible for the demise of the Republic.
No faith in capitalism?
I think the system
IS working. Over half of America is on drugs, be it legal or illegal. The government starts out with treating children for absolutely bogus conditions like ADD / ADHD. So the child is introduced to Ritalin. From there, children are taught they need SSRIs / opioids because their lives are so bad they can't cope. Then the children lose their insurance or decide to self medicate.
So, we have a government and their constituency that is so freaking stupid that they want to criminalize drugs after they just spent years creating the addicts. Foreigners take advantage of the situation by importing drugs. And the bulk of Americans, so stupid from the effects of drugs, they cannot figure this equation out:
Once you've created the addict, you either legalize drugs, cease and desist creating addicts,
OR accept the fact that drugs are going to come in the U.S. via the border.
The addicts,
unable and unwilling to work, leave a void whereby foreign laborers come in and do the job. Even if you got rid of the foreigners, it won't make an addict clean and it won't give them a clean criminal record. Adding insult to injury, even if an addict cleans up their act, we have a nation of dumb asses that rely on background checks and we have no second chances nor do we believe in redemption. So that half of America, most likely are not returning to work.
Then we blame all of this on foreigners and want to punish them for the conditions our own people created -
AND REFUSE TO DEAL WITH. It's easier to blame the foreigners, but the practice means that the people are willing to forfeit their
unalienable Rights and Liberties instead of addressing the root cause of their problems. I'm not willing to give up my Rights so that nit wits can get laws passed to screw with the foreigners - all of whom are simply taking advantage of the situation the American people created for themselves.
