America the not so great country anymore.

When I was growing up I always heard how great America my homeland was. I always believed this when I was younger. We had our greatest generation that not only lived during 2 world wars. But they also survived the great depression. We also have the baby boomers that have made our countrys econamy so strong during the 80's and 90's. But even though we have made great progress in technology. We have not kept pace with the rest of the world. We have failed our children. We have been self serving and greedy. We have lost touch with the world and our country.
Politicians seems to fight over who is more in touch with which group. Just today CNN pushed that the GOP is not in touch with wemon needs. Have we ever thought that the wemon are not in touch with what a woman should be. Have we lost the truth of what a family should be. Have we lost in this country what a father and mother should be. We have gays fighting for the right to marry. When this country is going down in every bracket that is tested. Why are we listening to these arguments that only cause contention.
I will tell you why. Greed, selfishness, arrogance, ignorance, etc.
If we want this country to become great again. We need have a mentality shift. We need to chnge on our wants and concentrate on our needs. This is something for the past year I have been trying to change. Some have supported me, others do not want to say I am making the right choices. But at the same time they admit they have seen my growth in good ways.
As a country we need to change. We need to vote those into government that will fight to make this country great. Give us chances to make our lives better and not say we all are the same. Some people just work harder and smarter. We need to stop voting for those or even giving power to those that are only willing to say things that they never intend to do. That only give us words to get us excited and leave us flat. We need to stop asking others to do things for us. We need to do things for ourselves.
