GALLUP: In Shocking Plunge, Only 1 in 4 Now Satisfied With State of USA

Well, let's see:

We have the war.

We have rich people getting richer. Many off the war.

We have big corporations getting bigger.

We are concerned that it is only the rich that get to run for the presidency and these people have no idea what it's like to be a commoner in the US. Thus, they can not relate to us, so how can we expect them to do what is right for us.

We notice there is little concern from the government regarding the health of its citizens.

We notice that our government plays on our fears, even actively stokes these fears, to further agendas we know very little, if anything, about.

We notice that no matter who gets elected to Congress, nothing much ever changes.

And there is shock because 25% of the population is satisfied with the state of the country?

We expect more from our government.

We expect truth, honesty, and fairness.

We expect our leaders to be held accountable for their actions.

We expect our leaders to do what is right for the citizens of this country and not to do what benefits their personal agendas or their pocketbooks or the pocketbooks of their friends.

We are tired of being used.

Here's the story.
