What has happened to America? Please show these numbers to anyone that does not believe that the United States is in decline. It is time for all of us to humble ourselves and face the reality of what has happened to our once great nation. For those of us that love America, it is heartbreaking to watch the foundations of our society rot and decay in thousands of different ways.

#1 According to a survey that was just conducted, only 36 percent of all Americans can name the three branches of government.

People walking around in public in their pajama pants seems more like they’ve given up than people with tattoos.
Bingo! How many people, though, would give that answer?
Pajama pants are a bad look, especially with a belly hanging out of a t shirt.
The tats I’m speaking about are the ones that cover entire legs or necks.
Your going nowhere with that exposed to the public
I am almost afraid to know.
Not enough
And they're not even embarrassed that they voted for the jerk. Just yesterday I saw a car with not one but two Obama bumper stickers.
