No we're not...it was MUCH worse in the 60s.
I disagree. The radical left was a much smaller % of total population than it is today.
The brainwashing that some far left college campuses have instituted, combined with the erasing of God from schools, the attack and dismemberment of the nuclear family structure, has resulted in a large growth in the number of Americans who worship the far left agenda.
American exceptionalism and the far left agenda do not and cannot coexist.
Crusader is right. We are so divided, and so entrenched on each side, that I feel there is no chance of compromise.
I will say, it is truly a remarkable time in American history. I do not see how our country can survive the current state it is in, financially, morally and politically. We are overdue for a massive, landmark moment in this country's history, maybe equal to 1776, 1861, 1944, etc, etc. The instensity on each side is growing hotter.
I, of course, feel the left wing ideology is like a mental oil spill in the mind of American values. I wish every liberal in the USA would move to California and live in their own liberal utopia and have it paid for by the CA state gov't, of course, with a federal law prohibiting a federal bailout of that state's government, and let them see where that road takes them.
And most of the collegiate brainwashed current left presently in their 20's or younger, will not have the opportunity to establish a successful small business like I, and many others in my generation have, because the barriers to entry to be able to do that will be too great for them to succeed, no less the business and personal taxes they'll have to pay.
As a result, most will end up in deadend jobs they'll hate and despise throughout their lives, and the amercan dream will be just a ghost that stands behind their shoulder, and they'll never be able to figure out how and why this happened.
Thats so sad too. The 25 year olds of today who worship Obama, preach about fairness and open borders, government health care, high taxes on the rich, etc, etc................are gonna be 40 years old down the road wondering "What the F**K happened?" and wondering why there are no jobs, China is dominating the world, they are living 3 families per household, and the government has tripled taxes on citizens to pay for entitlement programs that have been bankrupted.
