“Exactly, the American dream is in hibernation until we get better people in the WH.”

That is necessary, but it is now where near enough to re-establish constitutional freedoms. We need to take much more action to reign in the government agencies that is entrenching marxism into every facet of life.

when you fight to climb the income ladder...only to find it stolen under threat of violence and redistributed to those that would rather get stoned then work... the desire to push goes away.

best solution is to minimize spending and make his economic numbers collapse. they’re depending on the resilience of capitalism to cover their ass

Yes. We are no longer a Constitutional Republic.

We have government promoting immorality, our honorable military carrying out wars of convenience for the globalist agenda, courts without Justice, and massive debt to private globalist oligarchs, debt so great that even our grandchildren cannot hope to see it repaid.

We are no longer granted the rights of the first ten amendments and we have a ruler and his hench-devils dictating even our healthcare as they record our every communication, because of blackmailable Justices and anti-Constitutional bench warmers.

Is the American dream dead? Hell, most Americans can't even identify what that dream was.

Not necessary. The collapse of the economy and thus the society will mean chaos and disease and population reduction on a scale which will make private property ownership no longer sustainable in the individual versus the central authority.

Our time is over.

I totally agree. Too much damage has been done and recovery is impossible. This is especially true because the electorate has been so fundamentally degraded.

But it was a nice 232-year run (1776-2008), that's for sure. Being an OldPossum, I was privileged as to grow up and prosper during the good times.

Mrs. Fat Guy and I are spending our 25th wedding anniversary at Disney World. We were watching one of the Disney shows where evil is banished by wishes and dreams - it occurred to me that the current president, who likely 95% of Disney executives voted for, has destroyed the wishes and dreams of more people than anyone this side of Stalin and Mao. Substitute prayers for wishes and they still have a shot, but that’s the only hope.
