[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everything about the US is in decline.  Everything just seems so much more ghetto and run down compared to the 90s and 2000s. There is just no more national identity anymore.  For example, in the DMV you now regularly encounter hawkers trying to sell flowers, to drinks, to other trinkets at intersections. You now have unlicensed mopeds and scooters all over the roads in PG, MoCo, and DC.  Drive all over the beltway and you'll see all sorts of trash people dump from used mattresses to bag bags and bags of contractor waste on the side of the road.  You know where you see all of these kinds of things? In second and 3rd world countries.  That is what the US has become.  People just stop caring about the law and take great liberties with it.  You know why 2nd and 3rd world countries are the way they are? BECAUSE people in those countries have a toxic mindset of ignoring the law and have low standards for themselves. It results in things like dumping trash on the side of the road.  Now the US is importing tons of this same kind of mindset by the fistful. You never see hawkers and mass quantities of mopeds and scooters driving how ever they want in civilized countries like Japan, South Korea, or Denmark.  It's just death by 1000 cuts in the US.  Everything is in decline and I honestly can barely tell the difference anymore between a country like Vietnam or Thailand vs the US. I still think the US has further to go down and will be more of a central American country soon in terms of development, quality of education, and crime.  Just lawlessness, no semblance of identity, and trashy ingrained attitude. [/quote]
It may be true that Denmark and South Korea are better places to live but Japan is also in decline. They have an older population and a low birth rate. Their economy has never really recovered from its fall in the 1990s.

But even with Japanese demographics, everyone still obeys the law. There is not a single spec of trash virtually anywhere.  Graffiti? Almost non-existent.  Have you been in Tokyo during rush hour? They leave the gates open for the subways to help improve human traffic flow and congestion. And guess what? EVERYONE still pays!  They simply can't comprehend stealing fares because of the great harm it'd cause society and the shame it'd being to themselves. Contrast that to the US where fare evasion is a national past time and lawlessness is now acceptable. It's so disgusting what we tolerate in the USA and how far we are declining into a 2nd world country with almost no laws.[/quote]
