In your opinion, how has the United States obsession with money influenced the way it handles politics or its relation with the rest of the world?

ooo im excited to type this one. Im an econ nerd. here goes: ALL OPINIONATED

I feel that when the United States started to view itself as a prospering economy, rather than a United Nation, as intended, it became less desireable. Yes, the United States is a successful nation, in all aspects, it is a wonderful place to live. Yet, it is not what it claims to be-United. This is due to the obsession with money, jealousy, and encouraging inflation. When money becomes a center of discussion for politics, rather than what is best for the nation, it is an issue. I feel that the over-concern with money and the country's economy has caused some long-lasting issues that I do not know if we will be able to reverse.

MY opinion, please don't get angry!

i confess that there are several parts of this constitution which i do not at present approve, but i am not sure i shall never approve them: for having lived long, i have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information or fuller consideration, to change opinions even on important subjects, which i once thought right, but found to be otherwise. it is therefore that the older i grow, the more apt i am to doubt my own judgment, and to pay more respect to the judgment of others.
