However, the new Time reports that that socioeconomic mobility in the USA is now unlikely, and that even some European countries are ahead of the USA now.
The minute communism comes to the USA is the minute I emigrate to some other country. I lived in Beijing, China, and I want none of that! :ohno
:sad
Sign of the times. Between the fools who elected a Barrack Obama for their president, the 'leader' himself, and now his disenfranchised followers revolting in the streets, still unwilling to plainly admit it's themselves they have to blame for electing him in the first place rather then learning from their mistake...
It's not too surprising.
If we have to leave, I hear Canada's pretty nice! But that's a pipe dream. I couldn't afford such an adventure myself. If God sustains me through the coming disaster it's certainly enough or else that I should die, even better (Philippians 1:21)! Let it be for the testimony of my Lord and Savior I pray, or else quietly in the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Though, here's to praying we avert such a train wreck just the same! :lol2
I know I'm not alone when I visit our fellowship here. So many wise folks, it's encouraging to be here. But even outside of our fellowship, there are plenty of smart folks in America who are standing up against OWS and this administration and these self-professed liberal socialists.
I want to believe this time around our people will wake up and get back on track. We're like a yo-yo it seems, 4-8 years of a conservative that messes up a bit, followed by 4-8 years of a liberal who completely trashes the place, then the conservative, the liberal...
Americans are very reactive sadly, not proactive. We only react to the immediate with no regard for what happens down the line. For this reason, many such reactive people will be in Hell because they saw no reason to take action concerning their eternal salvation just then at the moment.
Granted this is a generalization, forgive me. Certainly not all americans are like that. Certainly not the folks here! That's just a general observation of society in my little slice of the world.
