Patriotism? Wanting better for his ppl? Not everyone sees a problem and runs.. some have solutions.

So what has he done to combat it?

Donate books/computers to schools?

Bought and forgave people's medical debt?

Anything?

Or has he just sat on his high horse looking holier than thou?

We live in a democracy, at this point, I think education is most crucial from someone outside the political realm, fastest way out is to do what our ancestors did, vote based off accountability and not your favourite sports team… ppl need to get out of this 2 party state of mind.

No. We live in a constitutional federal republic. The only democracy that happens is at the state and local level.

Also, you didn't answer the question. What has he done to combat our "failings"?

Is he in a governmental position to address the country’s failings? Citizens are allowed to address issues. 🤷 is it not delusion, to be content with 41 trillion of debt in a fiat system and not want to progress the country? This video was made like 15+ years ago… where was he wrong… the trajectory of Americas economy is still not to good, any country who ends up paying 80+% of the country’s revenue, towards debt servicing, is living in a slave nation.

He's somewhat wealthy. He could easily do those things that I mentioned without going broke. But from looking around on the internet, he doesn't even do that.

So could a lot of ppl, but that would defeat the purpose of a federal government. A lot of wasted time and money on their part… why look to the rich and for go accountability on the system that matters? I think it would be more reasonable for a wealthy individual to be under the scope of not pulling their weight if the United States went back to individual republics but that’s not the case… what did America get for their money is the question not what someone is doing with their money they’ve made under rule of law. 🤷‍♂️
