    USA is inferior at preventing women from driving cars like in other more advanced Muslim countries.

    USA is inferior at keeping women silent, covered up, and walking 10 paces behind a man, like other advanced Muslim countries do.

    USA is far behind France, Netherlands, where pedophile rights are concerned, but perhaps someday, pedophiles will be added to the Leftist Alt Sex Coalition of LGBTQ.

    USA is far behind Great Britain, Germany and Sweden in recognizing the cultural value of importing millions of Muslims into a nation, but perhaps someday, Washington D.C. can become like Londonstan today.

    Yes, representative democracy. We are called a representative republic because we are made up of multiple states, and in the case of the senate, senators represent the states. The people have voices through the House of Representatives.

    That is true.

    I consider myself independent and have voted for democrats, but generally my positions align with that of conservatives.

    Well in terms of wealth and power, its inarguable.

    In terms of promoting national values, its also inarguable that America championed them around the world to great benefit to hundreds of millions, and to the great detriment of those opposed.

    OTOH, In terms of quality of life, its severely lacking in comparison to many others.

    Reasonable assessment there.

    I dont think anyone is arguing America is perfect.

    But people float here on rafts.

    s

    How? they have simply not been here long enough, government's effect on economic things is a reaction, not an action so they are all lagging indicators. They are doing nothing but taking credit for prosperity caused by Democratic policies, which is what Republicans do all the time. . A prime example is unemployment It was in the low 5 's under Obama but Trump literally made up a much higher figure based on nothing and pushed that. Just about a WEEK later he heard it was in the high 4s and instantly took credit for it. When his much higher figure was actually pointed out to him he simply ignored it.

    It Trump says we are prosperous I am skeptical. Hell, if Trump says it is dark outside at night, I think we must be the Arctic and it's midnight sun.

    There are very few Mexican's flowing over the border, there are several Central Americans..The biggest demographic for refugee status and illegal immigrants are



    Chinese. So start bitching about them they account for 36%. El Salvadorians-8.6% So you are bitching about one nationality but ignoring the big picture, I guess the echo chamber is misinformed.

    LOL, the democratic policies that throttled business that the Trump administration overturned? You apparently have not been paying attention. Now that Trump is president both business and consumer confidence is way up and the economy is to the point of overheating.

    Brother its hard. It sounds like you know it.

    Your concerns are instantly understandable.

    Wish those concerns were less real elsewhere in the world.

    Like I said, its hard.

    I love children, though I have none of my own yet.

    You can do better than defending the democrat party.

    With the exception of South Africa, the US has the worst labor laws of any of the non-third world industrialized countries. That's nothing to be proud of.

    More people die from the legal drugs than the illegal ones by a very large margin, and more people die because of the empowerment of criminals that comes from the war on drugs than the actual use of the drugs themselves.

    I'm not a Democrat and wouldn't join that dysfunctional party. But your pathetic use of overblown hyperbole and
    partisanship is noted. The American form of government has many positives, but there is always room for improvement. Hardly means I "hate" my country.

    I don't agree with SCOTUS, but that is the mechanism we use in this country to settle disputes and I accept their decision.
