What is wrong with this country?!?

Question

Why do so many Americans hate their own country and constantly trash talk it?
Why do some retards still think 9/11 was an inside job?
We have so many people sympathizing with our enemies that they are actually starting to take their views and hate the men and women of the military that protect them. Just take a look back to when Pearl Harbor was bombed and Americans we actually patriotic.
There was no Dylan Avery exposing the "truth" behind Pearl Harbor. There were no left radicals claiming everything america did was wrong, or saying that we deserved it or asked for it.
Maybe a few more 9/11's will open peoples eyes? I just want to know what it is going to take for the citizens of this country to realize how good we actually have it compared to most countries.
You have freedom of speech, men and women from every race color and creed are allowed to vote, you can leave the country any time you want, and you can practice whatever religion you want, so why is america so bad?

Answer 1

Great question with many answers. Multiculturlisum and the rise in socialisum are the main culprits. Then there are the American people themselves. Blow the dust off the history books ( the old ones we used that had facts) and look at the Roman Empire. The United States is the modern day Roman Empire to a tee.

It was the afore mentioned that was the fall of that Empire. It was an empire that let it's self lose it's culture and law. They let their empire become completly diluted and lost focus on what they really were. They let their language and history become diluted and slowly killed their own culture. This is what the modern day liberal wants to happen.

That is what is happening here and those that are educated know it. In the United States today the Government protects other cultures and history more than our own. Since this country was built on immagrants we all of a sudden have no history of our own. No culture that is ours to protect and teach. We don't teach the greatness of the country in the schools or anywhere else.

I put the majoity of the blame on the American people. They have stood by and let it happen. They have year after year voted for people that sell us down the river on a daily basis. They are all too busy achieving their instant gratification to care about the big picture. We have become a society that consumes everything but knowledge.

We have become hated not because of the actions of our Government, but of the people we have become. The people that live in the richest and greatest country on the planet. The ones that have all and complain everyday about it. The world sees us for what we are now. A bunch of soft, spoiled and ungrateful opportunists. We will let our culture go without a fight and we don't care. Just look at the illegal immagration issues.

We may miss our favorite TV show so no time for that stuff. We tolerate a Media that lies to us on a daily basis and really doesn't care about the facts or the truth. We tolerate political leaders that leak National Secrets because they want their party to have favor. We tolerate the ACLU sueing over the nativity, but do nothing about being forced to install foot washer for muslims at airports and schools.

We tolerate mediocrity and lack of performance in the public schools. The education now is poor at best, but then it is more importnat to have trans-gender bathrooms than to know how to multiply. I feel America is great, but you asked why people don't think so. They don't think so because they base their life and opinions on 10 second sounds bites from a media that wouldn't tell the truth if they had to. There are many that feel they are owed somthing and everyone should pay their way. Opportunity must be grabbed and acted on, but they don't have time for that.

Many don't even understand what poor really is. Poor in this country is a roof over your head, in-door plumbing, AC, a car, a check from the Goverment they soo hate, food stamps to be able to eat and free medical care to name a few. Yes, this is a very bad country. Now, go complain to more than half the world how bad we have it and how bad America is. Oh wait, they already are.

Answer 2

I do believe that 9/11 was an inside job and I DO NOT hate our country or trash talk it. I do not agree with our enemies. I do however realize how good I have it but I also think that the Bush administration has been a joke from the beginning. I come from a strong military family, My 1 grandfather surviving D-Day & writing a book about it, my other grandad a CPL in the Army Airborne in WWll. Cousins, Uncles, even Aunts. I do not support this war. I want our men & women home. I respect the fact that they are doing their job but I don't agree with their job and the family I have that is in this war do not agree with their jobs either. But they have to do it because they swore that they would. Why is it that when someone like myself voices my opinions about Bush and the war, I get accused of hating my country? I think that things are really wrong in our country right now & I voice what I have learned to others so that they can form their own opinion and do their own research. I know that some of the things I have learned may be false but alot are true. I care about America, I love this country. I want to protect it, like the soldiers in my family, from terrorists outside and domestic. Bush is a domestic terrorist. He is a money whore.
I ask you...what makes a person patriotic? Blindly following their leader? Or upholding the Constitution? I think in order to be patriotic, you must always question your leadership to make sure your country is on the right path.

Although even at the time there was intense debate after Pearl harbour about what the US should do - many disagreed with Roosevelt's 'Europe first' policy and criticism of the President was widespread, many felt supporting Imperialist Britain was wrong - hence the 1941 Atlantic charter. We look back and see what we want to see WWII is now percieved as a 'good war' The Nazis were evil and it was right to stop them, but don't think everyone in the US supported it at the time cos they didn't.

Answer 4

I think too many folks are mistaking lack of support for a misguided war in Iraq for support of the nation. We are a nation of diverse opinions and the freedom to express those opinions.

Look people on the right and the left are realizing that the war in Iraq is a misfocus of our resources and our national energy.

Why are so many other Americans so willing to continue the madness in Iraq despite the obvious cost to our nation. I would suggest that it is those folks who put this great nation at greatest risk.

Answer 5

at first, i might savor it if somebody translated--into English-- what "Yodelli" mentioned. it rather is authentic that Cheney had the skill in the Bush years, yet i'm not confident that the administration's determination to attack Iraq replaced into specifically based on the "oil" component. We pointed out the possibility that replaced into Saddam Hussein, and to be truthful, it rather did not be counted what u . s . we've been meant to invade, in basic terms as long as we'd create our very own presence in the midsection East. i think of that the assertion, "he invaded Iraq and occupied it like an advancing Nazi fuerher" is quite severe. The administration invaded Afghanistan first, and then moved forces to Iraq in the logical experience that it replaced into important to resign Hussein's regime from spreading to far to the factor the place we wouldnt have the flexibility to do something approximately it.

Answer 6

FDR was trying to appease the isolationists lobbyists...but pearl harbor changed all that...the support for the troops in ww2 was magnificent...today...sadly,, the left-wing-nut left-over pot-smoking hippies and their spawn will never compare to the greatest generation that was of the ww2 era.

Answer 7

Lacking the ability to investigate on their own, and fearing the repercussions of legitimate investigation, media have simply given in to the truth -- that nutcases get better ratings.

Answer 8
