I do want our country to improve, but if I spend a shit ton of time stressing about it, my life will be more negativley effected, and believe me I know America isn't perfect, far from it, but it's definitely not a terrible place. Unfortunately there is nothing, me as an individual can do to change something I don't like here though.

Unfortunately there is nothing, me as an individual can do to change something I don't like here though. You couldn't be more wrong. What you can do starting now: 1) Educate yourself. About everything. About what is in place now in America and other countries. About history, and about the "Whys" of things. 2) Question things. Ask why things are, and why they are not. 3) Discuss options with other people. 4) Protest. If something happens you don't like, mobilize and make yourself seen and heard. Democracy. Use it. What you can do later: 1) Your job. What you choose to do with your career can have a major impact on the world around you. Be the change you want to see. 2) Your vote. You don't live in a "1 person, 1 vote democracy", but you can still make yourself heard. Who you support, both politically and socially. Who you support and who you vote for is what America is built upon. Talk to your local and State elected officials. If they aren't listening, start polls, Facebook campaigns, educational programs, protests, rallies, etc. 3) Your hobbies. You like journalism? Write about the change you want to see happen. People will read it. If you are good, they will love it, and share it, and believe it. I stopped because you want me to sim, but to say and think you can do nothing is naive and lame. Become the change you want to see. Live your life by it. Raise your kids to believe it. Don't roll over like a dead fucking dog at 16 years old for Christ's sake, man. Become the change you want to see.

Lmao I love how naive Americans are. Do you think we live in igloos and ride on polar bears as well? I prefer that you don't use the word "Americans." I'm sure you don't know enough to call everyone in America that. That'd be like me saying every Canadian says "Ay" at the end of their sentence. What would I call you then? You're an American lmao. Like I'm a Canadian so you'd call us Canadians. Don't see how that's offensive haha. Also yes we do say eh* not "ay" just as much as you guys say y'all.

Hey dont u even start talking trash about Donald Trump Nah, I'm not gonna bash on Trump about anything yet. I usually give any country's leader about a year or 2 before I really start criticizing them. He hasn't really done anything yet right now, since he's only the President-Elect. No bills or movements passed under his name, just a lot of protests from non-voters (which is kinda stupid. If you want change, why did't you vote in the first place. 95 million eligible American voters with a finger up their own ass.) If I do find something that he does and it negatively affects the country, you bet your ass I'll be on it. It's the same thing with Trudeau. He passed a Trans-Mountain pipeline bill, I think, and has kinda gone away from his whole 'climate control' spiel he offered us pre-election. I can understand why he did it, but it's a boneheaded move. Quite frankly, I don't care about this whole conversation at all. I'm just here for comic relief, if anything. Well, that's all I'm really good for, making Justin and Mike laugh at my stupidity. Self-Deprecation. Gotta love that shit.

Here's one small sample of something he has done: My American friends...if you don't expect better than this shit from the leader of your country, you got the president you deserve alright.
