American way of life

Taichiliberal said:
It didn't even exists in the 1950's. What Evince posted is the ideology of what the American way of life is or should be. What it's always boiled down to is that people felt that they had a shot at a better life that wasn't determined by class or caste or religion or race. Now we all know that a LOT of serious changes had be gone through for groups of people to actually have that shot. Also, many would argue that the "shot" doesn't exist beyond a certain point.

But

When compared to REAL, FULL ON dictatorships, oligarchies, communistic and theocratic countries around the world, our American way seems the better shot.

Americans have become complicit with forever wars and militarized police. We like to pretend we're bringing democracy to the world and that police are here to protect us. The American way of life is kids shooting up schools after their parents force them to take psychotropic drugs so they're not bothered while watching Netflix.

Some generalizations and exaggerations in what you say here, but also some truisms.

Since there is no "draft", the bogus war in Iraq and such got by. Once the "back door draft" fails and a full across the board draft is attempted, THEN Americans will get off their butts and start dealing with reality.

I believe that with increase in school shootings will result in people physically challenging the "gerry mandering" of voters. You can push the envelope only so far before it breaks.


During the Reagan years I was working in a garment factory with a woman from Iran....the Shah Pahvil's Iran (backed by our CIA). I had to explain to her about how our press is considered the "4th estate" and the whole business with Watergate. She told me (and I'll never forget this) that American's didn't know how good they had it, because she came from a country where "freedom of the press" could get you fired from your job, jailed or killed. Sobering.

The patriot act is a good example of how the US became a police state.

Once you remove pensions and nuclear weapons, Russia only spends $8 billion a year on its military. We sent $53 billion to Ukraine in the last 4 months. To put it in perspective, it would take about $20 billion a year to end homelessness in the US. The US is run by a bunch of psychopaths.

You are misinformed as usual. Russia is fighting for its survival, whereas US soldiers fight for a paycheck. How many years have you been a welfare queen?

Supposition and conjecture on your part regarding specifics....it's been known for decades that America waste serious bank on its military and far surpasses the other industrial nations, and it dwarfs our domestic social program spending.

Yeah, we have our problems and it's been WAY too long in trying to solve them, BUT that still does not change or debunk what I previously stated.

You made several good posts on topic but I'm not speculating or exaggerating. The American way of life is world domination. All the good jobs are with the war machine.

On some things, you are. Case in point....Any vet will tell you that jobs in the "war machine" are always overshadowed by the knowledge that you might get killed one day just doing your job (a similar occupational hazzard shared by cops and firemen)....and there are a LOT of opportunities and availabilities in civilian life that just don't exist in the military...like the option to quit at any time you feel like it.
