I like them all but I think 15 is my favorite.
ReplyDelete#8 thru 12 pretty much explains #16 thru 20....Ummmmm, where is the "the system is working" clown. I'mm starting to wonder what system he was taliking about. Must have been the SOLAR system. Our once great country is in the final throes of decline, marked by the ever incresing frequency of "conflicts", formerly known as "war"....we don't lead by moral example and the rule of law any more. We rule by force. And THAT marks the end of empires.
ReplyDeleteMost of these issues are because of the citizens......not the government. Look in the mirror folks.
ReplyDeletewhat can you expect.....the country is in a recession. and about the incarceration,,,,half of them ppl are incarcerated for marijuana. which should be legal. it is scientifically proven that weed is less damaging to the body than alcohol and cigarettes. those two are legal. is my point clear on that? and alot of ppl are now gettin incarcerated on purpose. because they know they will haave a place to live eat and rest their heads. its gettin to the point where its impossible to live. so they found there home.
