It is a scary time in America. Over 20 states have filed for secession ever since President Obama won reelection by defeating Republican candidate, Mitt Romney. Many Americans are concerned with the state of the United States of America. Unemployment continues to rise, the economy is not getting any better, crime is increasing - it just seems hopeless.
- Will the United States of America split apart again?
- Will there be another Civil War?
Only time will tell if history will repeat itself. The first Civil War was ironically under President Lincoln who like Obama, also originates from Illinois. However, the issue then was Slavery and how the south saw the emancipation of slaves as detrimental to the power of states and the local economy. The issues of today affect all of us.
If things do not improve in the nation, the people will rise again.
