Ignorance and Apathy Displayed by Most American Voters May Negatively Alter the Future of the World
The world’s population is estimated at 8.2 billion people. These
people live in 195 countries led by 195 leaders, and 195 governments.
The United States population in 2024 is 346,189,562 as of
November 29, 2024. Our country will be led by the least qualified man in the
world who has no idea how to lead more than 346 million people, and simply
doesn’t care. Our government has proven itself to be the most incompetent and
corrupt in the world. And yet, those who spend their days pretending to govern
America in Washington may very well change everything about the future of 8.2
billion people after January 20, 2025.
It is inevitable that 2025 will not be a good year for the
average human being. The rich and powerful will have complete control over our
future when the fascist Trump administration takes complete control over the
most powerful nation in the world.
Inside the private meeting rooms of the United Nations there
is an atmosphere of mistrust, confusion, uncertainty, and even fear. Upheaval worldwide
is a distinct possibility. Revolution and rioting could become daily news.
Trump’s negative effect on the world between 2017 and 2021
will become inconsequential after the first six months of a second opportunity
to destroy what was once the most respected nation in the world, offering hope
for most of the world’s population.
The United States had a reasonably good run. 248 years is
nothing compared to the history of the world, but according to John Adams, America’s
second president, it lasted longer than he and other members of our founding
fathers believed possible.
“I cannot say that democracy has been more pernicious, on
the whole, than any of the others. Its atrocities have been more transient;
those of the others have been more permanent. The history of all ages shows
that the caprice, cruelties, and horrors of democracy have soon disgusted,
alarmed, and terrified themselves.”
“Democracies always commit suicide by eventually wasting,
exhausting, and murdering themselves.”
Trump is solely responsible for thousands of deaths related
to the Covid-19 coronavirus. His failure to take timely and necessary action in
2020 allowed the deadly health emergency to spread more quickly and became lethal
in our country by March. A total of more than one-million lives were lost.
Over the next few years he could become responsible for
death and destruction worldwide. American presidents, a few good, but mostly
bad, have influenced events around the world for nearly 250 years. Nothing good
will come from a second opportunity for Trump and Putin to destroy alliances which
have prevented a third world war for 79 years.
