I wouldn't say the whole country is a failure, considering how advanced it is, but it sure could use some work. I'd say most middle-eastern countries are a failure.
Discuss on my points. Agree or disagree.
1.) Everyone is offended by everything. Don't you dare say anything about anyone, or they are liable to sue you, or post about what a terrible person you are on the internet. Which brings me to my next point.
2.) Everyone is sue happy. "I tripped on this crack in the sidewalk. Now I need to sue both the DOT and land owner for my sprained ankle."
3.) Outsourcing. Cheaper, and in terms of a lot of electronics and vehicles, a better product than we produce. Why? If things were made here and brought in cash flow, we wouldn't have companies worried about making so much profit. We wouldn't be in such a deficit in the first place.
4.) We don't care. This fits in which vehicle production IMO. Lee Iacocca discovered Japanese using American mfg. equipment to make vehicles. (this was decades ago and I don't have any printed proof, but lets assume its 100% accurate.) What does this mean? That we just don't care. Obviously if we use the same tools, we could build a vehicle just as good as the Japanese did. But we are lacking the pride and care to do so, which led to the 90s being the years for the Japanese.
5.) We don't learn. Mostly, this goes towards more/less control on something. Particularly guns. The government things gun control will magically fix issues with guns, but will it? Well, based on studies and other countries, no. Lets look at Switzerland. Guns are plentiful. So what is the difference? Education. Requirements. Not "banning" a tool. They have proper gun control by teaching citizens how to use it. No idiot will get a firearm without knowing a clue about it. But here, you want one you got one.
6.) Political parties. Instead of binding together to create a better America, they decide to bicker about things that really don't matter. I don't care that republicans do this or that. I don't care that democrats do that or this. Nor do I care about each of them saying that its all the other parties fault that Pogo the dancing chicken broke his break last summer. What I do care about is the future survival of the country I live in. The future for the next generation.
I wouldn't say the whole country is a failure, considering how advanced it is, but it sure could use some work. I'd say most middle-eastern countries are a failure.

USA is one of the most advanced countries in the world, considering most of the new inventions started from America itself. However, some would say complacency got the better of USA and that other nations in the world are striving for excellence such as China, India, Japan and Korea. It depends on the benchmark you are placing USA on, a comparison is relative.
If you talk about the economy,
USA's GDP/capital is not even near the top.
About politics,
The recent govt bailout between both the rep and democrats just shown the world how ineffective the policy makers are.
About Environment,
Definitely not one of the greatest.
This happens everywhere but it's taken more serious in the US. Don't know why, don't care why.
$$$$. The only people who do this are greedy assholes or just angry at the world for some stupid self-centered reason. If a normal person were to trip on a crack, they just laugh it off.
This is a conservative viewpoint that I won't debate because I'm indifferent on picking one party.
The talk about guns isn't focused on who knows how to use it and who doesn't. The governments main concern is people getting guns and shooting a school or theater. It's a 2nd amendment right that people can own guns, but where is that line drawn? If you have criminal record or mental issue?
See, this is just ignorant. The political parties are only doing this to win the primaries. After that they'll start agreeing with whoever was on the same party so they can win their votes over the other party. It's just politics. And again, ignorant. The future of the next generation depends on these people.
America isn't the best but it's better than anywhere else.
I think you are generalising all Americans bud. There are good things about the USA and bad. These are found in all countries. No nation is "perfect" expect some flaws bud.

Americans are good guys. But the politicians in the US... don't ever tell me about these morons.
Do you have something to say on the topic? If you are really interested in my age - pm me, we'll talk about it. Otherwise, don't waste your time for a guy like me? (who is probably less educated and less intelligent lol)

Do you mean you support these white house guys? That's truly a forceful patriotism!
this is why i like trump to become president. he don't give a fuck about lobiest, because he has enough money to tell them to fuck off. if he wins, you better hang on for dear life because he's going to turn washington upside down. Hell he might even get impeached for being an outsider.
Just because one has money doesn't mean he can rule politics and say "Now we are going to be doing things this way" - an idiot like you would think like that. And if everything was done by president alone without any consideration of other politicians and with public voting then I can consider US already dead, because the way Trump hates on Muslims and all that shenanigans gives me more than enough reasons that he is in-fact a new Adolf fucking Hitler who once upon his time brought us a unnecessary war 20 years ago. They both share similarities... And even more so how he talks down on Muslims like all muslims are terrorists then haha, if all muslims were terrorists then WE'D BE DEAD ALREADY, has ever came that to your mind?
All in all, I think Trump is just one spoiled motherfucker who is racist little shit.

All opinions are my own.
I agree with being sue happy. If you work for the government, you have to be careful what you due because someone is always looking for a lawsuit.
Trump is going to bring back American though. Trump ideas might be a bit "Big" and maybe some he won't be able to get congress to except with him but, i can see getting rid of some groups here and there and maybe making the US a more strict country in the boundaries of gun control giving all schools aloud to have open carry and giving that law to open carry to all states instead of just some.
Bring it on Ted Cruz Fanz!
