The Ugly "American"

Let's see:

  1. In America, there's too much money in politics.
Yes there most definitely is..
  1. There's also too much "entrenched partisanship."
Way too much indeed, to the point of stagnation..
  1. Too few Americans are civically engaged.
True, too many on cell phones, computers, television shows and game consoles..
  1. A "patchwork of laws" in America set out to make it hard for Americans to vote.
Very true and candidates are very limited to only two parties, along with elites choosing who runs and who gets the money...
  1. Considering our founding ideals, America has made “our share of mistakes over these last 25 years.”
More like 200 years of mistakes..
  1. The only way the world will become more secure is for powerful nations like America to “accept constraints.”
Hard to change what humans have been doing to each other for 10k years...
  1. For believing that all countries must adhere to certain "international norms," many Americans criticize Obama.
Most people want it their way or the highway.....
  1. Too many in Washington believe all of the problems in the world can be solved by Washington.
They can't even solve Washington's problems, much less anyone else.....
  1. As president, he's helped "curb" America’s “excesses of capitalism.”
Yet the 1% gets richer in the US by socialism and too big to fail mentalities by Washington which is heavily influenced by the rich and powerful...
  1. America has “undermined unions,” which has destroyed manufacturing jobs.
Should have kept the mafia out of the unions...
  1. In calling for greater respect and tolerance, Obama also likened racial discrimination in the U.S. to ethnic discrimination in Burundi and and religious discrimination in Burma.
What country doesn't have it's problems with race and religions by the majority?
