That said--I think we need to celebrate America on its 250! I think we cannot let our ideals go without celebration. I don't have any fantasy that American can remain at the top of the world, but I do believe strongly in the mission. I think we have become too nice and empathetic. America was built on incredibly hard work and visible consequences. We need to celebrate our best and brightest, give them all the opportunities to succeed, and while we should not forget our poor, we cannot focus all our energy and money on them.
OP: I totally agree with what you’re saying here and agree that Dems have swung too far in the wrong direction. However, when I see the characters in this administration and their policy actions (like cutting research funding), it’s very much anti-best and brightest. And since America voted them in, doesn’t it mean America is now the same?
