It's the trick of the libertarians and far right to keep a percent of the population in constant fear of impeding dictatorship. It's been going on for decades. The answer is no, we are not close now, we have never been close, we will not be close anytime in the foreseeable future. Side: No

Seriously? Are you going to go through with this agrument? It's not a matter of numbers you know, it is a matter of logic and I feel horrible because you have such excellent arguments in other fields. There is no impending doom, and nothing fancy all things considered has happened recently. America has not changed it's form of govenment, nor any other world power. It's a smoke screen. A scam by the party recently put out of power to regain that power. Nothing more. There is not even so great a difference difference between what was before and now, it is a pendulum swinging. Literally the only difference between this swing is that it includes a black guy... could have just as easily been a black guy 10 years from now further right. But historically, not US historically but human historically, that is a side note and nothing more. It's the pendulum of democracy. It is human evolution prayerfails, this is how it goes.... and frankly, it seems the Scandinavian countries did it faster according to your chart - despite a true fascist at their doorstep only a few decades ago. Frankly, I think a country that argues is better off. You're deep green counries have little reason to advance after all. Side: No

I think it will, so I've decided to move to Somalia where I will live out the rest of my days free of government interference. Hopefully one day, Americans can live the dream of having no government, just like Somalia is today. See, there are the two extremes: North Korea and Somalia. One with enormous government interference, the other with none. Methinks the US is Much closer to the former right now. Side: yes

Welcome to CreateDebate
CreateDebate is a social debate community built around ideas, discussion and democracy. If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:
- Arguments with the highest score are displayed first. Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument. To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
- To vote for an argument, use these icons: You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument. Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change. Yes, you can change your vote.
- Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account. All scores are updated in real-time. To learn more about the CreateDebate scoring system, check out the FAQ.
- When you are ready to voice your opinion, use the Add Argument button to create an argument. If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
