I wish it were that easy. I would leave in 2 seconds if my wife didn't have a wonderful job she loves. Also, I have other commitments to family members that's I won't neglect. One more thing, the country I would like to move to has much more strict laws to getting in than we do here.

I never said this country wasn't great but is nowhere as unified as it was before. That is a fact that can't be denied. Your head would have to be buried in the sand not to see this. The way the far right and far left act is pathetic and disgusting.

Name the person or persons that will unite this country?

When will we stop having a 24/7 news cycle of hate?

How will we convince people to stop being greedy and self-serving?

When will we as a country accept diversity? (It ain't changing it's here to stay)

These are just a few questions that need answers if we want to make this country great for ALL. You have a better chance buying beachfront property in Nebraska than solving the above issues.

If you need proof of just how divided we are re-read the threads in this forum. You will understand how I have formed my opinion. Another fun experiment is flip back and forth between Fox and MSNBC.

I wanna respond to these political threads but I don't feel like being called a conspiracy theorist and get in a 10 page argument with the far lefties and far righties. Both parties are in bed with each other. It's the rich vs the poor, not the left vs the right. When the people figure that out, that's when America can be great again.

It sounds liked you can bring some other topics to the table Jason. It is a fun forum in my opinion. Nothing to be afraid of in here.

Seems like you have some sound logic and are reasonable. You won't do well in this forum.

How pathetic of a country are we that the best we can put up to become President is a choice between Donald and Hillary. It's laughable.

I must admit I used to care a lot more than I do now. Now I am more concerned about my next vacation. But, politics is a car crash and I still like to look.

If you think the argument in politics is rich vs. poor, then you need to turn off MSNBC or CNN, because you don't even have the argument correct.

The argument is big government vs. small(er) government.

Trump is not even a conservative a traditional republican by any means, but is showing his hand at a small(er) government through his recent policies. Go check his 2018 budget for you non-believers and see how he is taking a hatchet to wasteful spending.
