What's wrong with America? Well that is a big question and there are more then just one answer to that question. There are a lot of things wrong with our country but, let's all remember there are also a lot of things right with our country. What's right with America will be a separate blog. Now on to the things that America should change if we want to remain a world leader.
1. A big problem that we have in this country is ( unemployment ) It's the worst since 1945, and that's if you believe the official government numbers that don't even count people who gave up looking for work. Also, please remember that back in 1945 there were not near as many people in this country as we have today. There are many many Americans today that are not working and not because they do not want to work but rather, because they can't find work.
2. Our public schools systems is also a big problem in this country. There are The and have been cases where as a public school system has passed a student when that student has not had good enough grades to pass.
3. Health insurance for Americans. Ah, now that is a real big issue. I admit we have to do something about the health insurance in this country or maybe do something about the lack of insurance for Americans. WE will have to wait and see just how well President Obama's health care reform works out for the average American citizen.
4. The Environmental policies in or country at time have a lot to be desired. We constantly dump chemicals and poisons in our rivers and waterways. I fear that some day soon this practice of polluting America's water ways will catch up with us. As a matter of fact it already has started to catch up with us and we can see that every time we test our water. In a way it has gotten somewhat better but still, we do have large corporations that continue to poison our lakes and rivers. I found an article from the yea 2004 and I would think our rivers and waterways have become even more polluted since then.
5. Our nation is being over run by Illegal immigrants. We have laws against people being in this country illegally. yet our entire system of education, medical, food stamp and welfare systems are bombarded by the illegals. Strange thing is that the our government has as far as immigration reform is this....Just give them citizenship. Oh and if they happen to have family members back home, They can come into the U.S. and be handed citizenship too. Problem is, this country can not afford to continue to take care of these people and, the ONLY sensible thing to do is send them back from where they came . Now I can just see all the hate mail coming in AGAIN because every time I say that in a blog I get plenty of it. To be honest I don't care. I know illegal immigration is wrong and so do the people sending me the hate emails. This country needs better security at the boarders and better ways to stop our boarders from being crossed by illegals. Take a look at this page and you will also want our government to do something about this issue and do it NOW
Until next time my friends take care and stay healthy
