Have you noticed that people are becoming angrier? You can see it everywhere – in our homes, in our schools, in our workplaces, in our television shows, in our movies, and certainly in Washington. In fact, many have said that there is an “epidemic” of anger in America today. And it is undeniably true. As you will see below, a whole host of surveys and opinion polls show that America has become a seething cauldron of anger and frustration unlike anything that we have ever seen before. As a nation, we are more divided than we have been in decades, and economic conditions continue to deteriorate. People are working harder than ever and Americans get less vacation days than anyone else in the world, but median household income keeps going down every year. Americans are dissatisfied with their relationships, their jobs, their communities and their political leaders. There is this growing sense that our country is steamrolling toward disaster, and yet there is very little agreement on what the solutions to our problems are. Instead, blaming others for our problems has become a new American pastime. The very fabric of our society is coming apart at the seams and the thin veneer of civilization that we all take for granted isbeginning to disappear. What is America going to look like if we continue to go even farther down this road?
The following statistics come from various surveys and opinion polls that have been conducted recently. Without a doubt, these numbers show that Americans are angrier and more frustrated than ever…
#1 65 percent of Americans are dissatisfied “with the U.S. system of government and its effectiveness”. That is the highest level of dissatisfaction that Gallup has ever recorded.

People are still pleasant in the beer store.
ReplyDeleteThere is high rate of people that commit these brutal crimes that are taking some kind of anti-depressant or some other prescribed psychotic medication. These are brain altering chemicals and some even warn of abnormal behavior up to and including suicide. What they don't warn is the fact that they can also include homicide. This is a theory I've had for a very long time and had a real bad experience with a combination of two different drugs back in 2010. I really think due to the fact that I experimented with psychedelic drugs as a teenager in the seventies, it helped me tolerate the effects of the anti-depressants. I went cold turkey and stopped the anti-depressants and thought it was like heroin withdraw. I was dizzy, I was nauseated, you name it, I could easily believe some people could just flat out "Flip Out." Everyone of us is an experiment for big Pharmacy, who is supporting big government.

ReplyDeleteUnless my math is completely off,it will take an entire 4 year term just to change that mentality.Another 4 year term will be required to stabilize the economy.Unless something remarkable and currently unseen occurs we'll be in the mid 2020's before a complete 180 has occurred.
