To be ready to throw in the towel

Hello IIN. I live in America and the current "feel" and overall climate of the country is not good. Politically, financially, etc...

I liken it to the recent "Great Recession" when the real estate bubble imploded, but this time it feels like the whole society is ready to go. Neither candidate running for office has any real idea of how to solve it or head off this "implosion" that is building. Clinton doesn't even talk about it, while Trump does but continuously allows himself to get baited into a stupid verbal battle, which solves nothing.

Is it normal as a 30 something, educated, white male today in America I feel like this? When did I become a joke? When did I become "not experienced" for jobs or promotions? Why are we so concerned with making everyone "equal" when certain people (from any background or gender) clearly are not?

Do liberal minded people realize that if we continue to promote unqualified people into important positions that major mistakes with huge ramifications are going to happen? We continuously import people from third world countries with third world thinking with no realization that if we continue to do this we will eventually have a third world country.

Why are we hell bent on committing cultural and financial collapse?

    Because we the elite 1% no longer need help from the middle class to become fabulously wealthy. Through stock ownership, wealth created by robots is paid to us. Jobs are exported to China, so we manage and facilitate imports for large profit margins.

    It is a good time to be wealthy in America. The 99% can go fend for themselves.

    Realize that we're in a bubble of debt on a global scale that will pop. It's a matter of when and not if. What this election is about is what America becomes afterwards.

    Just get a camper/van or truck to live in and work on learning to live at the lowest poverty level possible. That way, when the whole of society collapses, you'll be ahead of the game, amd no economic situtation will affect you in any way at all anymore. Just be sure to learn some kind of skill to trade for food after society's downfall
