I'm old.....really old. When did I know America would eventually face collapse? Wasn't hard to predict.

Roe v Wade, January 22, 1973. That was the dark day SCOTUS legalized killing babies via abortion. . It was pretty simple. Women debauched, forgot to take their BC pill, got pregnant, and either kept the baby or in most cases.......got an abortion. Instead of cleaning up their life (eveyone makes mistakes), find a nice young man to start a family - they joined the hook-up culture. It went downhill from there.

Thus began the sharp decline of our birth rate. The decline in birthrates is worse in other countries. China, with their one child policy, has been forced to reverse their one child policy and provide monetary gifts to couples to encourage them to have babies. Apparently it isn't working. .

What a mess.

Blame others? What generation has been the majority voters and politicians in this country for the last 30 years?

You might want to go study the American electorate the last 25 years if you think Boomers voted all of this shite in.

Over 50. I tell my kids about the good old days when the US voted for Reagan and only one state was the outlier. They can't believe we were ever that unified.

Then I remind them that daddy is partly to blame because I voted for the Demon party during my younger days. Republicans now are basically Democrats from the late 80's.....

Uniparty rules the day.

Most of those voters are dead.

Relax… God is in charge. Wake up every morning with the intention of doing His will and not yours, and the rest will take care of itself. If you do that, there is no way to lose no matter what happens.

My mother used to tell me that if we could survive Franklin Roosevelt we could survive anything. Have we truly survived Franklin Roosevelt? He, if we're being completely objective, is one of the worst presidents in the history of the United States.

I think Wilson who had a God complex was the impetus for our destruction. FDR and LBJ just exacerbated it.

I respect those people who lived through the first part of the 20th century for sure.

poll a few days ago that showed 51% of Americans under age 40 had a favorable view of socialism.


Have you talked to anyone under 40. The world is arse for them, you know nothing of their struggle.

But hey, at least we got social security to look forward too... oh wait, that shite doesn't work either.
