In most ways the United States of America is the greatest place to work. Salaries on a world standard are consistently high in most professions -- though the reality of a "minimum wage" pours cold water on the entire system. If I were living in a country other than the USA I would be striving to emigrate there.
Opportunity, freedom of travel, education on a relatively inexpensive level, training for specific jobs usually available, the rights guaranteed by our Constitution, a relatively high standard of living -- all are possible here. But most Americans still complain -- and struggle with the realities they are facing. Perhaps it is the nature of human beings to be dissatisfied. Yesterday a young man from America (Illinois by way of Minnesota and California) died in Syria/Iraq fighting for ISIS! That is a tragedy.
The immorality of war is heightened by the return to medieval standards dictated by backwards-facing religions cults. ISIS, the new Caliphate, is a sham -- an insult to civilization and humanity, to say nothing of its ridiculous posturing as the "true Muslim" faith. Everyone in the world who has a brain, including disaffected Americans, should be labelling ISIS for what it is: evil, consummate evil, masquerading as truth. There is no valid "other" opinion.
Dying for the ideals of ISIS is dying for nothing!
