This suggests you are not disillusioned with its past state. Ok, well, it's a start. Please consider reading Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the USA" (also available in audio form), to further your disillusionment.
Well, possibly, but - _that's_ what's bothering you? Not how the US kills a lot of people? Supports dictatorships and oligarchies? And internally, caters to the rich much more than to the masses, so much so that drinking water is dangerous to drink in many places? How it spies on everyone all the time?
The speed is not the main problem here, I would say.
