While I’m not a fan of group-think you are just plain wrong on this…Most people are smart enough to know they are always supposed to be trying to BETTER their situation, they’re smart enough to know life is about compromise and often times about accepting the best available option as part of advancement.
Indeed, most people know they should try to BETTER their situation. Yet most do not. Either because they are lazy or they do not know how. Voting for the duopoly is an example of both of these
Only ignorant fools would believe they are bettering their position by sitting on their hands and letting others decide for them.
When one is choosing between being shot or being stabbed, there is no "better", just two shitty choices. That is what we face today.
You are actually a perfect example… You are running yourself straight out of the country you served to protect because you haven’t learned how to vote it out of the shitter…because FEELINGS and shit.
You still do not understand why I am leaving, and I am sure you never will. My life and that of my family have never been better. We are not leaving
It is not about who wins an election, it is about the divide in the country. It is about the fact that people put party before country, that people cannot be friends any longer with someone that does not agree with their politics.
Yes, I served to protect this country, but it is no longer the country I served, and people like you do not want it to be, and there are hundreds of millions of you and only one of me. Veterans are becoming the biggest group of people choosing to become Ex-pats because of this division.
Why would I stay when I have nothing in common with people like you from either side of the political divide?
