I feel that Biden and the Democrats in office are intending to destroy the America that we have had since our country was founded. The Democratic Party of today is not the same party of 20 years ago. The republicans and democrats use to be able to work together, but no more. It’s like a bunch of crooks on both sides trying to fill their pockets.

I believe that if we can return to a more moral America, that would take care of some if not most of the other items on this list. The long-term moral decay in American politics, culture, and society

My biggest worry is Socialism getting foot in door of USA. This country is very divided at current time with Republicans/Democrats and that has been goal of Communism since 1950s. The Jan 6th Mob riots at our Capitol showed a nation that does not follow rules.

All of the above ! The democrats are only concerned with their own pockets and using the American People to fill them. The American dream will be dead if we don’t stand up or we will only be another 3rd world country. Only God can give us peace now

Moral decay is what took down all great empires! Our country is turning from Our Lord and Savior. You wait, it won’t be too long before Christian’s are classed as Domestic Terrorists. Because we believe in laws and rules. We are becoming a joke to the rest of the world with the Dog and Pony show in DC. We can’t go back to status quo politics anymore after knowing the truth from President Trump. That’s why so many hated him. He pointed out the TRUTH of what they were actually doing. No one believes our media, our politicians, anyone telling us to vaccinate, you cannot believe anything coming out of almost anyone’s mouth. But, we do have people we can listen to, we have voices, they can’t take away what we have learned about Right and Wrong. It’s just not allowed to be talked about on Social Media. As the Bible says in Revelation, end times, “What’s Right is Wrong, What’s Wrong is Right”. You can blatantly see it, if you know God.

Morality and ethics is missing in so much of what people are doing . People don’t know what Biblical truth is and and are misguided in their actions. This problem trickles down in generation after after generation. God wants to help everyone but not everyone wants to follow His word. So many people don’t follow are Savior Jesus Christ.

Hated only being able to choose one. I’m worried about way more than just one of the above – inflation, government taxes increasing, and the degradation of our republic which is both internally and internationally at risk.

The childlike minds and vicious criminal tendencies of the something-for-nothing crowd (aka Democrats), unchecked by defeats at the polls, criminal prosecutions and incarcerations, will destroy for certain this country in a very short time.

INFLATION at 7% in 2022 thanks to DICTATOR Beijing biden who is ILLEGALLY in White House.
Get ready for OVER $6/gal in 2022.

This would NOT have happened under PRESIDENT TRUMP who LEGALLY and TECHNICALLY WON 2020 ELECTION. Plus, we were ENERGY INDEPENDENT with LOW FUEL PRICES and LOW PRICES on CONSUMER PRODUCTS along with we were #1 in the World.
Under DICTATOR Beijing biden he has put COMMUNIST China first over the UNITED STATES.

As a Believer in Yeshua The Messiah, I am not concerned about anything. My trust is in the Father,
A L O N E. When He was putting stars into space He knew these days were coming AND He made a way of escape for those of us WHO CHOOSE His FREE and PERFECTED gift of eternal life WITH HIM!

Phil 4 – 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

So, as you celebrate this December, praise the Father for His condescension, coming to earth in the form of His Son, Yeshua The Messiah, and that He was willing to be beaten beyond recognition, then was crucified JUST SO you and I could be raised up into new life in Him, through His resurrection! We’ve SO MUCH to be thankful for withOUT concern for our future…EVER!

Psalm 2 – 1 Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? 2 The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against His anointed, saying, 3 “Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles. 4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.5 He rebukes them in His anger and terrifies them in His wrath, saying, 6 “I have installed My king
on Zion, My holy mountain.”

I too would have voted for all of the above. It is really scary how our government is making so many changes and they don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. They are soft crime by not doing anything about the smash and grab’s or anything about people that are shooting up the neighborhoods or are afraid to walk down the street to go to the grocery store,the inflation, and they say the bill doesn’t hurt anybody over 400,000, that is such a joke! It is hard to make ends meet right now when you’re on Social Security. I feel for some of these elderly people that are choosing to buy medicine over food and lodging. My heart breaks for them. I just don’t understand the Democratic Party. The Republicans need to stand up for our freedoms!

I can’t believe those who vote Democrat don’t see their party’s ultimate mission is to gain absolute power by packing the Supreme Court, making DC a state, and letting 16-year olds, felons, and illegals vote. Also, their refusal to stop the southern invasion makes them all traitors.

There should have been a choice with “All the above”, because moving to Socialism is the worst case, and all the other “choices” follow, ensnaring those who do not follow history and “real news”. Once Socialism/Communism takes over and you realize you’ve been had, it is almost impossible to escape from it. It is a totalitarian form of government with a dictator who rules, just like Biden is trying to do now!

Long term moral decay in our country covers a whole spectrum of sins. In fact, this is the basis for all other problems facing the country. When immorality reigns in the hearts and lives of the American people, and most emphatically in the leaders of the country, from the president on down, more specifically being manifested in the members of the Democratic Party, then the whole foundation of our republic is shaken to the core. Republicans must guard against the moral decay in their lives.

I think question 4,6 & 7 are all the same. Moral decay leads to Socialism which by definition intrudes into your life and steals your money/destroys the economy.

Michael Peck

I think the last four possible responses are related.

I selected ‘A move away from our free enterprise system to socialism, preventing more people from achieving the “American dream.”’ as my response because, in my opinion, a socialist economic / political regime cannot be implemented absent long-term moral decay in politics, culture, and society and results in a government which will try to control every aspect of people’s lives.

Therefore the other possible responses are an indispensible precondition to implementing and maintaining a socialist system of economics and governing.

Every attempt to install a Socialist (read as Marxist, Communist or Fascist) governing system has, without exception, ended up in tragedy, with millions upon millions of people dead.

Authoritarian regimes cannot tolerate individual liberty because there is so much the authority wants to accomplish that are offensive to basic human nature.

When objections are inevitable raised, they are met with extreme violence in an attempt to ‘restore order’.

It has always been so. It will always be so unless socialists can ‘improve’ upon human beings.

That should frighten you more than anything else.

Seems each and every day we are being pushed towards loosing more and more of our freedoms. The Democrats in total charge has completely brought this country to the worst place for so many years in less than 11 months. The hardest thing to watch is how our borders were completely opened to let anything and anyone in. And now we are witnessing the worse crime and child trafficking we have ever ever seen or heard of. This is the worst person the democrats could have chosen for their candidate. We HAVE to get back into control before we loose this country completely

Gary Howard

To pick one of these choices seems to minimize the others. I am deeply concerned about all of them. Most concerning however, is the American voters knowingly put this group of US hating socialist in place — we all knew what they were, but we did it anyway. The polls suggest that 1/2, while concerned, is still on board with Bidden and his leftwing policies (or whoever is calling the shots).

I believe the choice would have been multiple choice! People are sick and tired of the government taking advantage of OUR hard earned money while they pad their pockets for themselves and their families. OUR GOVERNMENT WAS PUT IN PLACE TO APPEASE THE PEOPLE NOT THEMSELVES!
All of these politicians can go to hell!

For once, I am happily with the majority! By the time Easter rolls around, we will all be breathing a bit easier. Some say by the first of the year, but that seems a little quick to me still – and I’ve been having these conversations since summer.

Hold on folks and keep on keeping on. Nothing is truly what it seems. (My goto: The crazier things get, the more comfortable I am.)

You left off immigration, which is fueling crime, drug abuse/deaths, and trafficking. It also has long range impact – we are just beginning to see this as NY passes legislation to allow illegal immigrants to vote. What does it mean to be an American citizen any more?

It is very frightening that our younger people are being thrown into this type of political disruption. They have to totally take a deep look and really go back to the Americans and America that got them where they are currently at. With their freedoms. I fear the new wave of leaders just want to throw all of that away.

Willfully, quietly, even secretly dragging this shining beacon of a nation that was & still generally is the United States of America into socialism and then communism benefits first & most those running the horror show–the Inner Party. Communist governments are designed for the ELITES at the top! Everyone else works for _their benefit_! Keeping the fruits of your labor? Nope. Having a real influence in political outcomes? Nope. Taxation without representation? Oh yeah. Fascist stormtroopers keeping order in the streets? Yup.
But we _can_ change this! STOP VOTING FOR autocrats, gov’t placed above us, grabbers-of-power-&-control (“oh but it’s just for this one little emergency”), those who would smile while they keep on enslaving us!! Don’t just vote for “the other party” automatically! BEWARE! There are wolves in poorly fitting sheep-suits trying to slide into power. Research the voting records, keep the destroyers of the US Constitution out of office! It’s not their smiling face, promises, or political party that counts anymore. Actions! What have they done for the causes of a liberated people in the greatest nation of the past 3,000 years?
