The extremists who post on this board can't possibly be representative of Americans in general.Lots of Americans like to cut corners. The dollar comes first.. Trump has encouraged those kinds of values. Look at the Yahoos on this board.. Lots of them think an airplane pilot and a cab driver and a doctor have the same licensing requirements.
Most of them can be understood as seeking attention by exaggerating the extent of America's problems, out of frustration.
And then there are the extreme crazies who are here in a competition with other extremist to see who can get the most attention.
