So what would you like the conservatives to do to America. Make Christian teachings obligatory at school? Chemically castrate all homosexuals? You so dearly want to return to a time when everyone was Christian, homosexuals were illegal and thousands of women died in pregnancy. Luckily you're kind are a dying breed, and the younger generations don't share your stubborn ignorance to progress.
So it isn't a solely Muslim ban. This does not change the fact that the ban is still racist and discriminatory. Banning travel for nationals of those countries makes no sense, especially since many of the people affected are good citizens that could provide extra money for the government.
It is, mostly because people getting rich or powerful depends more on who you were born to, than your own merit. Which means we're caught in a cycle where the rich families stay rich, no matter how incompetent, and the poor families stay poor, no matter how hard working. It is rare to find someone from a poor family and neighborhood to become the head of a successful company or become a millionaire.
I don't think so. The examples you listed up there aren't divisive enough for a civil war. And if there was one, I would do anything possible not to fight in it. Call me a coward, but wars are the bane of humanity, and the worst thing that could happen in someone's life.
In terms of technology, it's a three-way battle. Japan, China and Germany are brilliant in this regard. America could be up there too, but it's mostly just Silicon Valley elevating the rest of the country.
Democratically, America sucks. It's 2 party system sucks, it's voting system sucks. It's better than all the countries with dictators, but it lags behind most European countries there.
Culturally, America is very xenophobic and capitalist (Trump embodies most bad American stereotypes perfectly). The nation's mindset as a whole is very selfish, but luckily this is changing for the better. There is no greatest country culturally, because every candidate has been stained one way or another. Germany with Nazism, Japan with imperialism, Spain with extreme Catholicism, etc.
In truth, no country is better than all the rest, because every nation has both good and bad.
Not everyone who doesn't work does so because they're lazy. Many just can't find anything, or don't have the necessary skillset for the available jobs they've rounds. And the government shouldn't discriminate against those that don't work, by not letting them be able to have healthcare. Especially in emergencies, this could be very damaging and potentially life-threatening.
I would definitely make an exception for places like Alaska and others. But in places like Washington DC or New York where everyone has access to supermarkets, it's unnecessary. Hunting as pest control is fine, what I'm against is hunting for sport. What's your opinion on that?
Well, I would think that maybe my thoughts were someone else's thoughts and opinions passed on to me. Also, since my whole notion of who I am would be destroyed, I would probably get very paranoid and come up with ridiculous conspiracy theories and such. But if I was in that situation for real, I don't truly know what I'd do.
