    Agreed. People need to accept that the nation must fall before we, as people, can rise again. I do not know what the big deal is with moving on from something that isn’t working for anyone. It isn’t working for anyone except a handful of people and the entire world is so exhausted of the US.

    What’s even more shocking to me is that we have not yet even come to terms with the reality that we are four distinct regions and each region is preventing the other from succeeding in their own way. Northeast, Texas through Florida, the west and the mid-west. It’s beyond obvious we are four different countries. Most land masses this size have much smaller countries and ours is simply unmanageable.

    It will never recover. It can only become something else.

      I don’t think burning is inherently necessary, that it means the complete destruction of the country, or that splitting is wise. I’m in the camp of we need to prosecute and repair what’s broken.
