Morally and intranationally speaking, is America a nation in decline?

Question

Dogsnoop ~ Intranationally speaking, not internationally.

Scott B ~ Intranationally is the word I meant to use. Please don't tell me I don't know how to spell. It was intentional.

Answer 1

Yes. At the rate we are going we will end up being a third world country in 100 years.More people vote for American Idol than vote for president.Our sports figures have become icons.. Illegal aliens are pouring in to this country and placing a burden on our economy and we are importing more than we export.Finally as Kathy Griffin so eloquently said about her award. This is my God now.This country is definitely in trouble.I won't see the fall of the USA but I'm afraid my grand kids will.The shame of it is that just 60 years ago the USA produced the finest generation of Americans that ever lived, and now that generation they produced has turned in to the me generation.God save this country.

Answer 2

Yes you tried to build an Empire you can't sustain and you made to many enemies to keep your economy and trade going.
The problem is that America will drag other countries with it; for example America has a deal with Thailand whereby it purchases rice at a fix price in Dollars, this used to be ok when the two currencies where stable but now the Baht is on the rise and the Dollar is falling like a stone the farmers growing the rice will barely make enough money to feed themselves and will have to go out of business.

Answer 3

The sub-culture of the leftist are bringing the american image down. You can go to other countries and hear all the negative things about America. They say that the tragic of 9/11 was planned by pres. Bush, and the USA is at war, killing innocent people because we want the oil in Irak. That we made a lot fuss about Janet Jackson showed a "tit" on tv, but say nothing about the invation of another country.

Answer 4

Quite the contrary, we have recovered nicely from the moral ambiguity of the 60's and 70's, we are more economically viable as well. By the way... it's internationally, learn to spell.

Answer 5

Honestly? I would say so. Once upon a time people came to this country to assimilate to the American way of life. That meant learning English, following the rules, and helping to make America better. Now? Now people come to this country expecting America to make THEM better.

And it's no coincidence that as liberal values increase in this country, so do we see increases in unwed mothers, abortions, dead beat dads, teenage sex, teenage drug use, divorce, and porn actresses that are household names. And when you point all this out, you're accused of being a right wing, ultra religious, fascist, unyielding Nazi for actually supporting traditional family values and morals. I guess believing that men should marry women and raise their kids as a family isn't popular anymore. So yes the baby boomers are on their way out of power. But all that means is that the hippie generation of the 60's are waiting to take over! GOD HELP US ALL!

Answer 6

Well, not really. If you compare the morals of 1970's America with the morals of today, you might find that we are actually on a upswing.

Answer 7

Conservatives and liberals seem to have different ideas when it comes to morals and ethics, but I'm sure most would agree, for different reasons, that America is a nation in decline as far as morals go.

Answer 8

you ought to confess its all approximately course a bad street can bring about undesirable effects. Iraq particularly bothers me. we are making use of a communist financial device to purchase oil from antagonistic countries. The formula of 100yr conflict does no longer make sense. jointly as the chinese language ecomomy is predicated in super by ability of our call for of chinese language products. many of their products are defective and usually poisonous. besides, the government isn't making use of the money wisely. Its been suggested many cases that all of us is paid greater to create defective weapons usually. for that reason, we are in a position to end that a interior the long-term the chinese language financial device would be harm and our dollar greater heavily deflated if we shop on the charade that Europeans call a "junk bond conflict with Iraq."

Answer 9

Morally... absolutely.
People, in general, have become so self-centered and self-absorbed that the well-being of the whole is barely considered.

Answer 10

Our nation is in transit between baby boomers and new generation.... Baby boomers have outlived their time but still trying to hold on to the steering wheel.

I hope we will see changes when new generation will come to power
