The USA is the richest country in the world by a long way. How exactly is it suddenly becoming a 3rd world nation? I see this kind of hand wringing often from Americans, and I find it puzzling.

Its a slow decay...

- We now allow anyone to go into a store and steal up to $1k worth of goods and they can do so without consequence

- Ive witnessed drivers driving on the wrong side of the road going into oncoming traffic cause they didnt want to wait in traffic

- There is one to two mass school shootings a month in the US. How many do you have in your country?

I agree the crime situation is a problem, but what has that to do with 3rd world status?

No rule of law is followed and or exists it becomes a 2nd or 3rd world country as people flee the country like they are in many South American countries for the US
