Whats happening to the USA ?

Question

Whats happened to the nation that everyone respected , that everyone feared

Answer 1

You want to know the truth??

People around the world, are just tired of us sticking our noses into they business, and we act like we are the world's policeman. People are just tired of our policies. But, people like the Congress, Senate, and our "candidates" are bought. Our country is no longer ruled by the People, it is ruled by corporations, bankers, lobbyists, and paid politicians. We have a nation that is very corrupt, and we are doing nothing about it. People would wish the US would be a freedom loving nation once again, but we have become ruthless, arrogant, and blinded by patriotism.

It's our duty to uphold the Constitution, bring the troops home, stop unnecessary spending, kick out lobbyists that control the government, and become free from Big brother government. Take care.

Answer 2

First you tell us what's happening to Great Britain.  ;)

Answer 3

To many whiners are getting their way. 1) Ciminals have more rights then victims. Come on we lost family values and they took the right to say the pledge of alegiance and prayers in school. No i'm not a church person but can't see were it hurt anything. Are path is wrong and don't know if we can get back on the right path. Yeah we are supposedly take better care of kids by watching 4 abuse but now we are so far to one side are kids are out of control. We stuck our noses as a country into so many other country's problems. and when we did help most were ungrateful(Kuwaitt wasn't) we have alot of inner issues that need to be solved before we go helping others.

Answer 4

I find it amazing that conservatives find a way to blame liberals for the problems we face when they've held absolute power since 2000 and mostly power since 2006.

It's the Republicans.... NOT conservative ideals necessarily, but Republicans. The party has become some evil amalgamation of corporate predators, religous loonies and borderline facists.

Democrats arent the greatest thing in the world, but to quote the (very funny) movie Supertroopers:

"But our shenanagins are funny and harmless, his shenanagins are cruel and tragic."

Thus indicate the differences. I'll take mostly harmless any day over the

alternative bad.

Answer 5

It's just existing. Like it always has.

I don't really see what makes this nation so radically different from how it was in the past. It's a nation, like any other. It just happens to be powerful.  

Answer 6

NATO has always been a bluff to avoid Russian expansion.The US didn't save Georgia because they are scared of a war against Russia that would cause nuclear destruction of American cities.The same would have happened if the Soviets invaded Germany or any other country,America has no reason to sign its assured destruction  

Answer 7

Vietnam happened. The anti-war left of the sixties happened.

We are hated because we care. We are hated because we have allowed Europe and the world to make us their "break in case of emergency" police/rescue agency.

We are disrespected because we are the worlds charity bank, handing out money to who ever asks. We've become the parents with 45 year old kids still living at home and begging for gas money.

WWII era, we as a country were called upon and went and kicked *** and were home four years later. In the 60's/70's we had so many whiners crying about US soldier dying to protect the freedom of people the left didn't care about, that our government started second guessing everything it did militarily.

It handcuffed Jimmy Carter, during the Iran hostage situation, Reagan after the barracks bombings and every other president up to Bush.

The anti-war left and the Democrat party hand-cuffed the military again with its whining and threats to cut and run, again in the Iraq War. Right up until Bush shoved a 40,000 troop surge down the terrorist/Democrat's necks.

Why are we hated? Because the world is jealous of the USA. They are jealous of the fact that our 13 year old sniveling brat babies are uneducated and have color TVs and computers in their bedrooms.

Why are we disrespected? Because you can attack us and we'll blame ourselves for causing you to do it.

That's what happened.
