Over the last three years, the state of economic, cultural, and political affairs within the domestic United States has markedly deteriorated. Indeed, while it can be argued that the country has been on a slow, steady decline for decades since the mid-1960s, the events that have transpired since the COVID-19 pandemic have truly exacerbated that process and have made it plain for all to see how poor the trajectory of the nation is. There are many reasons for the decline of the United States, but the fact of the matter is that this decline has been largely due to the incompetence, selfishness and short sighted nature of many American politicians and government bureaucrats over the last 60 years.
Economically, the middle class has been stagnant for decades in what has been deemed the “hourglass” effect. Over the last three years, the effects of inflation have taken their toll on citizens. Brought about largely by congressional politicians from both parties that championed huge spending packages, trillions of dollars in new federal spending was authorized by President Biden early in his term. Now, as the cost of living continues to increase and home prices soar to such heights that it is now impossible for median income families to afford to own a residence, the future of the country appears ominous.
Internationally, the state of affairs is no better. Once again due to incompetence and the weak leadership of the American President, two armed conflicts have escalated over the last several years in Europe and the Middle East. Russia invaded Ukraine in early 2022, and in late 2023 the Muslim terrorist group Hamas invaded Israel and murdered over 1,000 civilians. Despite the claims of many American academics, Muslim migrants, and woke college students in the country, Hamas and Palestine are indeed terrorists and a terrorist run nation. Recently, the organization has denied committing violence against women despite clear evidence to the contrary.
