What do you do when you become older and start paying attention...and when you do, you realize the country is going to hell in a handbasekt....literally....and you feel angry but powerless to stop it?

Look...I am trying to start a real conversation....ban me.

IMO just sit back and watch the sound of madness

I can't really contribute anything intelligent to this.

You don't have to be older to see that we and nearly everyone else have serious problems. This country is long past the point of no return, and it's a matter of time before we crumble.

That's the way it works, though. Humans created our societies and government. They have a life cycle just like anything else in the world, and ours happens to be burning the candle at both ends.

I can not answer because I'm not allowed. The long and short of it is that if you're going to look for answers from man or man made institutions they WILL fail you. Good luck.

Remember, if a tree falls in the woods and a woman isnt there to hear it, is the man still to blame? YES!!

Been that way for a while for me too. I usually vote to feel like i did something or stand up to be counted in other ways.
Then theres other times where I rant in my garage, want to tear off someones head, clean my rifles, count my ammunition and then sit alone in the garage and drink a beer in total quiet to think.
I just worry about what we are leaving our kids and the children I see going through foster care. You really want to screw up your day sit in on some of the meetings about the children we see going through our home. It has gotten to the point I do not want to hear or interact with the majority of the parents anymore because my emotions towards them ride on my cuff. Hell, we even had one parent that threatened to come cut off my wifes and my head with a sword. Sad part is in my bad days many moons ago I actually knew this guy. Same walk but chose different paths.
As Pudgy alludes to I have come to the same truth as he.
Wish you the best in figuring it out Jimmy.
