LBJ and his damned "great society" put a long acting poison in this country. The effects get worse by the day

FDR got things rolling while LBJ kicked it into overdrive.

This is correct, at least as far as it began the slide that started in the 1960’s.

There’s been a lot of things since then, but it really started in the 60’s. Subsequent events have piled on, making things worse.

LBJ’s Great Society caused a lot of things that weren’t what most people would have intended. The breakup of the black middle class and the black family. Welfare culture.

The Vietnam War began the drug and protest movements, and the politicization of the media.

Taking us off the Gold Standard enabled the rise of corporations and globalism, severely damaging mom and pop businesses, and resulting in a large reduction in manufacturing capability.

Almost everything since then has exacerbated the foregoing.

For those who think we are in great shape, we can’t even make a good many of the sensitive parts our military relies upon to maintain our so-called technological superiority. Hell, our manufacturing can’t provide us with enough conventional weaponry, much less high tech items.

Anyone who thinks we haven’t declined is a fool.

Absolutely this. After the CIA/FBI murdered JFK (and Robert)
then, inserted the person J. Edgar Hoover forced JFK to choose as his vice president, Lyndon Baynes Johnson.

Once LBJ was inserted the degradation of American Society by the deep state began with "The civil rights act of 1964" (look up LBJs famous quote after signing the law) and the Vietnam War.




TRUMP 2024!
