America is systematically and deliberately being destroyed.
The self described intellectuals are just beginning to become aware of it.
The politicians are mostly ignorant of the fact or don't care.
Obama is destroying America. Our once great country is now deeply in debt and unable to compete.
Lot of people sitting on their asses doing nothing. That is part of the problem. Eating crap food isn’t helping either.
I was in France for ten days.
I only saw one fat person I thought was French.
I saw several overweight people in the Louvre, all spoke English except a German.
Even in Britain, there are very few overweight people. I haven’t seen an obese person in all of Europe and I’ve been here over three weeks.
Soda tends to be expensive here.
Smoking is more common in France from what I saw.
Living paycheck to paycheck, or retirement check to retirement check, budgeting every expenditure, might have something to do with it. Crummy to no interest rates in savings and CD’s is a blow to savers, who are punished. No COLA during three years of Obama’s presidency for federal and posted retirees and SS recipients while the government showers welfare on illegal immigrants and brings in Syrian refugees might engender feelings of unfairness among good American citizens of any age. The horror show will continue with a Clinton presidency.
The heroin epidemic is a byproduct of the destruction of the working and middle ciasses!
“The slide in the wrong direction was driven by drug and alcohol poisoning, chronic liver diseases, and suicide ..”
We have a friend who is the head of HR at the large regional hospital here. He told us that about half of the applicants for jobs at the hospital don’t make it past the initial drug screen or criminal background check.
This is why NR supports Cruz - working to eliminate the white working class and middle class all together.
“The politicians are mostly ignorant of the fact or don’t care.”
I think it’s the latter.
Whereas men are still more likely to choose dangerous jobs, jobs that have a high risk of death, etc...
Time to take America back!
It’s very simple.
A country in decline creates lots of stress.
Middle America became the results of decades long destructive policies created by the lawyers and politicians in D.C.
The politicians are mostly ignorant of the fact or don’t care.

Well, in my opinion, the politicians and the federal government have been intentionally at war with the middle class since the 1960’s.
The reason why is a populace dominated by lower class government dependents and lower class immigrants will tolerate a corrupt government.
Look at places like Zimbabwe and Venezuela. The ruling class lives in luxury paid for by corruption and government theft while everybody not in the ruling class gets poorer and poorer.
