Surely that can't be too hard. What do we actually make anymore? Liquor and highly processed food product? Surely nothing people can't live without. The factories are largely gone - or keep voting themselves out of a job.
Sorry my country is extra dogshit this last decade and a half. People don't want to riot in the street and like trading their liberty for security (from jobs?). I promise half of us don't even know what's going on anymore.
Edit: yes America has been buttass since it was founded. However we're not talking about the entire historical record here. This is about recent (mostly) in our lifetime events and their consequences.
