> Dude, that isn't sustainable. That is an absolute powder keg where rural, low-density shithole states full of angry, poorly educated clowns keep lording over urban, educated Americans. That it has been endured this long is an absolute mystery.

At some point, the mystery to me feels how are american people so tolerant of so many bad decisions which are net negative (like really bad) long term as well too.

Could such tolerance be provided to perhaps have some short term losses/accomodations to better suit the economy and people's lifestyle to enrich it long term?

Where was the tolerance for those sectors?

Things didn't have to go down this way for America until literally quite recently. America and heck, even the rest of world have their own problems but it feels like stacking one problem after another as to what america is doing and America was given good cards. America was the global superpower and nothing else really came close and it could've cozied up to Europe,Australia,India, Japan, SK and african countries to battle chinese influence but what it has done is actually backstab these very nations that they are more opening up to china.

Truly, short term loss for long term loss moment.
