Now that you mention it…you prompt responses, Mary, thanks.

It’s been a slow process , slow enough that people accept the changes…and me thinks , shouldn’t .

Our children used to be safe in school, out playing. Our roads used to be safe to drive on , now cell phone distraction , road rage, and late night altercations/ mistakes litter not only sidewalks but roads, parks, and all night stop n shops.

One was guaranteed emergency services , saving lives, then health care declined, lost funding, laws dogged changing safeguards saying something could be better ( but never came up with it).

Our statistics are appalling , so strange for the richest of “civilized” countries.

Highest cancer, heart, obesity.

Lowest reading comprehension or ability.

Highest infant deaths.

Highest gun related deaths, incarceration, but most millionaires and low tax rates.

Doesn’t compute.Doesn’t make sense.

We have two parties at war with each other ,not working together , in fact, vying for top dog, supposedly chosen to represent what? America , as it slowly dies apparently.

So very sad.

No Country for … critical thinkers, ethical and moral human beings. America is fast becoming a country of dystopian nightmares.
