I dont...and I think the usa was basically built on lies. At this point, the internal contradictions of the usa are catching up with us. And this country being built on lots is essentially poison fruit from the poison tree.
a classic example is Thomas Jefferson saying 'all men are created equal'...obviously he was lying and he didn't believe it himself. He owned human slaves. He believed that black people basically required white people to think and make decisions for them...because black people on their own would simply fail at life. So the whole premise was not only wrong...it also wasn't what the founders believed themselves. Obviously what they MEANT was that they were equal to the king. But they didn't say that. And when you don't say what you mean then you can get caught in quite a tangled web of deception.
The people who live in the usa can be good people. But the whole American project was doomed to fail from the start...and doomed to degenerate into an empire of lies. We really need to cast off that history and create a new future where people are sincere about what they want.
