will America ever return to be as it was at the beginning of the 20th century?

Ah, the good old days -- when women weren't legally allowed to vote, right? When laws were skewed to favor white, male property owners above all others? I wonder if old white men from the early 20th century fantasized about a return to the days when they could legally own slaves as well. Roll Eyes

Exactly.

100 years ago, gay and lesbian will not come out publicly to fight for their own right. Injustice will not be publish on newspaper.

We are more free than ever comparing to the 20th century and people still complain.

great for the gays and lesbians, but for the regular joe we like to have some financial freedom, instead of being a wage-slave to the bankers.

100 years ago, heck even 40 years ago, it was not needed for a family to both be employed fulltime just to get by. It was normal for one of the partners (usually the female) to stay at home while the other one worked a full time job, and they had plenty of income to get by. Also they could often afford a house (or at least get an affordable loan to get a house) at young age.

Right now, most people need to have a full time job for both partners, or even a fulltime job plus a parttime job for both partners, just to get by. Houses are so expensive hardly anyone can afford them. Young people can forget about it.

But at least gay people can marry publically.

Those income tax etc made America who they are today.

a corrupt nation that steals from not only their own citizens, but the whole world?

That dictates how other countries should be governed?

That commits international crimes and gets away with it?

Great, not only do they steal from their citizens, they also abuse the money to fuck over the rest of the world.

what a nice country the US of Fucking A is.

You should feel proud of your contribution to the greatest scam country humankind has ever seen.
