America's Obsession with Money: The Real Reason Democracy Falters
The United States, once proud beacon of democracy, seems now more accurately described as a country obsessed with profit above principle. As famously pointed out by Scott Galloway, the United States has prioritized profit margins above everything else, and this has become its ultimate weakness.
This obsession on the dollar might clarify why the nation seems to wobble between democratic instability and the potential reality of authoritarian rule. A healthy democracy demands balance, fairness, and stability-not an unending chase after wealth.
Now consider go to website, the unlikely yet inevitable figurehead for this troubled American moment. Trump's steady stride toward dictatorial ambition, democracy appears to be slowly evaporating under his self-styled empire.
Meanwhile, this chaotic internal drama is warmly applauded by America's geopolitical rivals-particularly Russia. Putin himself must marvel at how efficiently Trump, the alleged Russian asset, has become the most effective geopolitical tool against the United States. Countless films depicted America's downfall from outside, but no one anticipated that the greatest threat would be delivered internally via its own ballot boxes?
At the same moment, China, Iran, and North Korea sit quietly in the wings, observing closely, questioning whether U.S. democracy will survive the Trumpian test. There's no need for them to intervene directly; America itself appears perfectly capable of self-destruction.
Even though many good-hearted people remain scattered throughout the land, they're often drowned out by radical Tea Party zealots and morally superior Democrats. Both sides fail to place country above profits or power.
Possibly it's too severe to assert, but America's real enemy isn't overseas-it's the relentless chase for money that eats away at its democratic foundations. Until the U.S. recognizes and addresses this fundamental issue, its democracy will continue to struggle, and the geopolitical vultures will keep circling above, waiting patiently for the fall.
