Overall, 39% of U.S. adults say they are “extremely proud” to be American in the most recent poll.
Meanwhile, only 18% of those aged 18-34 said the same, compared to 40% of those aged 35-54 and 50% of those 55 and over.
18% is still too high. As Obama’s pastor said, God damn America! Americans have very little to be proud of at this point.
I feel like there’s also the fact that everyone who has comfortably been established tells them they’re lazy and aren’t trying hard enough…to get past all the barriers those greedy people have set up
And that we have the resources to make sure they don’t die and their teeth don’t fall out…but they don’t get it
And the fact that the elites have convinced them somehow that voting is pointless… They need to get shaken out of that.
If everyone who was in that 82% voted, the republican party would die overnight
You ever read about people like WWII pilots, bankers, maybe some scientists, etc who got into their fields by just kind of wandering in ass backwards, and the gov or business or whatever said oh you’re only 16 and dropped out of school in eighth grade and you’re completely unqualified, no problem, here go fly this Corsair and shoot bad guys, or go ahead and manage this portfolio or whatever. Those are the same people who tell you just walk in and look the boss square in the eye and demand a job.
Try that now and you don’t even get past security.
