    I couldn’t help but look at your post history, and I see that you’re against Russia invading Ukraine. Well our same politicians that are feeding us shit slop are the same ones that are sending billions of dollars to Ukraine in aid and supplies to help Ukraine win this war.

    Again the U.S. isn’t perfect, but people always seem to have to find a way to make it sound like it’s the worst country in the world when in reality it’s not.

    I’ve lived in a couple of different countries myself and speaking with the natives there, I would hear so many things they considered that was bad about their country and government, and how they would love to live in the U.S. I was always confused about this because I hear so much negativity about the U.S. online but in reality it seems quite the opposite.

      Not the worst, just average. Thats sad considering the US is the global superpower. Im from a south american country and here it is certainly worse than the US, but the fact that it is even close considering the wealth you guys have is baffling. I do not intend to say the US is the worst, just that it should be SO much better, and i hope people start demanding change, US citizens deserve better.

      On the topic of Ukraine, the cost of support on that war is like 3% of your military budget. Thats peanuts. The US has the global currency. hard and soft power all over the world. An educated and productive population thats slightly growing and it is a desirable destination for skilled immigrants. I want ppl to realize the position the US is in, how powerful a country it is and how bullshit it is that so many of its citizens suffer needlessly.
