America Will Decline To The Point Of Failure Because.......

[Contrarian Expatriate]

The American peoples' trifecta of ignorance, delusion and arrogance dooms each and every institution that crumbles as I write this.

The Uniformed American Electorate - Most Americans correctly decry the Congress and all other politicians as abject failures. What American voters do not realize is that these useless politicians are a DIRECT reflection of them as a population. Since Americans are unmatched in the developed world in terms of worldly-wisdom, public policy, and basic economics, they tend to vote according to their financial well-being. How then do politicians respond? They respond by pressing that political button that resonates with most Americans, the pocket book. Americans' single-minded obsession with their personal cash flow is a disincentive for politicians and elected officials to responsibly manage public treasure. In fact, there is a political penalty for that so Americans themselves are to blame for the irresponsible policies of government officials.

General Ignorance of Federal Government Powers - When Barack Obama was elected, the behavior of uneducated blacks and uneducated whites reflected a larger reality. Low status blacks believed that Obama was going to single-handedly lift them out of their debased status and right all the wrongs done to them, real or imagined. Low status whites believed they were going to be dispossessed of the few assets they have and vengeful blacks were going to "take over" the country. None of this took place because that is not how government functions. If Americans had a modicum of knowledge of the Constitution they would know that it places restraints on government action. Not to say that government abuses do not occur, but they can be checked by the courts and other government institutions what that happens. Social Studies 101 is lacking for sure.

General Ignorance of State Government Powers - The US Constitution was designed to be the glue of the nation for things like national currency, taxation, military, immigration, etc. The founders never wanted the federal government to be intruding into peoples personal lives, but that is what the American electorate has essentially demanded. The US Constitution leaves it up to the individual states to determine their "health, welfare, safety, and morals." State legislatures are constitutionally very powerful, more powerful than the federal government when it comes to matters that effect Americans' day to day lives. But since most Americans cannot even name their state representatives, let alone know what state laws they support, the federal government has been used to step into the role of the decider of the "health, welfare, safety, and morals." Feminist federal laws like sexual harassment, LGBT legitimacy, and a host of other politically-demanded nonsense is the direct result of Americans ignorance of the state role in regulating day to day living in America.

General Ignorance of Economic and Personal Finance Principles - It is axiomatic that consumption is the fuel of an economy. The more people "buy stuff" the more the economy grows and expands. It is official public policy to encourage people to continue to buy more and more and more. Certain purchases like homes are subsidized to hyper grow the economy. The result of all this buying is oppressive personal debt. Debt makes you a slave to your job, trapped in your location, and imprisoned on the hamster wheel of American economic life. The exponentially high rate of bankruptcies is proof of this lack of financial sophistication. The low average net worth is also proof, but so long as everyone buys the new iPhone six months after they bought their previous model, all is well to the average American.

General Ignorance of What Constitutes Education - One of the most pressing political issues (after the economy) is "education," especially to women. However, most Americans view "education" as more money poured into the public schools and ensuring your kids attend school. There is no wonder American adults are so stupid, they were conditioned to be so by their parents. Education is more than simply ensuring your kids go to class. It involves ensuring the kids do supervised homework, read voraciously as a matter of routine, and are exposed to different disciplines like the arts, architecture, science, sport, literature, etc. Education is approximately 50% (or less) schooling, and mostly providing children with the tools to continuously expand upon their basic education with an idea of what fields interest them. Most American kids go to college with basic skills but little motivation or direction for high success. Underprivileged kids have far less than even that. We are therefore a stupid and declining nation because of it.

General Ignorance Of The World And Foreign Cultures - American media continues the feed Americans the lie that America is the greatest nation on earth. Perhaps at one time it was, but it is now at the bottom of the developed world and it is falling fast. American women are a ruined lot that actually believes they are the best women in the world. In fact, they are likely the worst women in the world, especially in terms of skill as wives and mothers. If you want to see a nation on the rise, look to see what its women are doing. If you want to see a nation on the decline, look to see what its women are doing. American women are increasingly conditioned to function as men. Families and children therefore suffer and the nation therefore declines. If Americans opened their eyes to see cultures rising from the ashes, they would see that women and families are at the core of the success. Our American arrogance will always prevent that from taking place. Well, that and the fact that most Americans could never find Andorra, Malvinas, and East Timor on a globe. Basic geography aside, we are a stupid nation beyond repair because we cannot even see our true status in the world.

Conclusion - So stick a fork in the United States. We are now doomed as a nation. The question is whether the demise will be this decade or in a subsequent decade. The only hope for America is for the few who can see the demise to sound the alarms at the risk of ridicule and scorn. The smartest among us will escape the nation for greener pastures and watch the house burn down from the outside.

America has a remarkable ability to reinvent itself after a crisis, but this reinvention MUST be from the absolute bottom, not a simple economic depression like in 1929 or in 2008. That point is on the horizon. The question is where will you be when it happens?

First of all, America is not a nation, it's multicultural dustbin, a Nation is defined as a group of people who share the same blood or at least 98 % of the people share the same blood like Japan. How can America be regarded as a Nation when all the people are divided based on race, sex etc

Just to educate you on the term nation, it has more than one context and the one you used differs from the one I used. But if we use your definition for purposes of argumentation, countries like Russia, China, India, UK Australia, Canada, and many others would not be "nations" as you define it. Even Japan is barely over your 98% threshold so in a few years it will cease to be a "nation" according to you.

Your misconception of nationhood aside, America is indeed considered a sovereign nation and American is a distinct nationality (despite what many Latin Americans state). The ethic strife and divisions you pointed out do not change that fact.
