What Went Wrong With the United States

The liberals perfected the art and the voters dutifully bent over and grabbed the ankles.

In a democracy , the voter enjoys not only the ultimate power but carries the ultimate responsibility. – Norman Cousins
The USA voter also watches The View and thinks reality TV is real. 

Democracy is a device that insures we shall be governed no better than we deserve.
Democracy is a form of government that substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few. - GEORGE BERNARD SHAW – Writer.

We deserve the pain, destruction and death that is on the horizon. Either by our actions or our in-actions, we are all guilty.- Faldo
 
"A Democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can exist only until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largess from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that a Democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a Dictatorship. 
The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: 
From bondage to spiritual faith; 
from spiritual faith to great courage; 
from courage to liberty; 
from liberty to abundance; 
from abundance to selfishness; 
from selfishness to complacency; 
from complacency to apathy; 
from apathy to dependency; 
from dependency back into bondage."
-- Professor Alexander Tyler, about 240 years ago. 

We are now in full dependency mode. Guess what is next? - Faldo
