True for past decade and past score of years progressively. We have forgotten what happiness is. We have become socially inept. All out for ourselves individually.

Lida Vitt

When a can of green beans has jumped fron under a $1 to over $3 in less than 3 years, the price of a new garage door has almost tripled in in less than 3 years, absolutely!! This has happened with everything!!

Max DeYoung

I believe more angry, would be a better question. Confidence in our government is at a historic low.

Zaos Gonzolez

Happiness is folly. Get hard. Raise your own food. Have a huge family and you'll find eternal joy.

I already do. It pays to drive to Boonville when I can get gas for $3.16 at Breaktime vs $3.58 ish in Columbia.

The United States should take everything it wants.

Eric Smith

Why not ask the Cubans, say in a vote, where they all get to voice their feelings, and not suppressed by their communist government.

Max

If we don't, then Disneyland might get it, and they would ruin it.

This has nothing to do with America 1st! Trump & the GOP can't handle what is happening in the US. Let alone messing up the Governments of other Countries. No one Voted for the U.S. to overthrow other Nations to take over their Governments. They Voted to have US problems fixed, not make them worse.

Kevin Blount

Of course not! So much for expecting a peace prize. Trump is as bad as Putin

Fred

We LIBERATE countries ... we don't try to colonize them!
