once upon a time america was all u needed but now it seems that its days are numbered. would u still run to it for safety or is home better. is america's open freedoms and general lack of internal control a sign of its fall from grace and has it offended to many to return to leadership by trust not fear

I'm not really understanding what you're trying to say. "once upon a time america was all you needed..."? I don't really understand that. It is still a land of opportuninty I believe but I also believe that some changes need to be made if America doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of past world powers like the Greeks and Romans. But looking back on history, we can see that no matter how invincible a country might seem, there is always the possibility of a fall from grace. Maybe if you elaborate more on your question I can help more.

I agree with you..there are too many things they are taking away from us..and yet there are oppottunities,and we still have things other countries dont..we are slowly losing what our fore fathers gave to us..Like religion..they took it out of the White House..the commandments,,,and parayer in school,,and anything to do with God on signs on Police buidlings and Fire Stations..and then Holidays!! taking away merry christmas? how we can parent our children?? how to eat? the list goes on and on..and frankly.,.,its ticking me off to no end! And its just going to get worse,,

America was founded on religious freedom. you are free in America to believe in whatever God or Gods you want, this is why the ten commandments were taking from the white house. yours or anyone's religion is freedom of choice. The government does not mandate any one religion and for good reason. Freedom to pursue happiness.
