We as a nation have to begin understanding that not everything can or needs to stay the same. It seems a large swath of our population not only opposes (most) new ideas/concepts but becomes outright hostile at the very suggestion to a point where nearly everything becomes a massive, drawn out national debate that rages on for decades. Our unwillingness/inability to quickly address and fix issues like those mentioned above is in my opinion what will cause the nation to slowly crumble or lead to outright collapse as a world superpower.
There really is nothing facing us right now that can't be fixed but its going to require us, the population as a whole, to take elections seriously, educate ourselves on the issues we face and be willing to make the sacrifices when needed. What terrifies me is, right now, that seems highly unlikely to happen. I always wonder if our high quality of life has lulled us into a false sense of security.
