Re: problem solving for the country
It will help everyone to read a book by a professor who lost his son to the invasion war in Iraq. Prof. Andrew Basevich's The Limits of Power.
It speaks of the blinding cosumerism, implerialistic capitalism & US intl policies due to which America is in crisis, & yet the propagande is continued to make other countries and nations, look like they are in need of US hegamony over them.
As a patriot American, I also will say that given my constitutional rights and sincere well wishing hopes and prayers for this country where I live in, for now, I know that its govt will have to change, other wise, America could become the next Russia and alot more worse.
