So folks, tell us how it's like living in the US? Our country is proud of being the most powerful of all, but what does that mean, actually? Does that mean all citizens have high living standards? Or that the public services are better and available for everyone? Does that mean there's no poverty, no crisis, no violence? Does that mean people are living in a better, safer society? From what we see, our society is everything but none of these.
It's safe to say that the situation in the US is on a downward spiral. Apocalyptic gas prices, rampant violence, broken healthcare system, poor public policies, and we can name more. Can we believe in the American dream when the gas price is at times higher than our current living wage? How can people even exist? That's sad and frustrating. We vowed to make America great again, but where does it bring us? We now see more problems than results. And it is to say our society is now a typical dystopian nightmare, with sheer chaos.
