I know what you mean, but realistically America has been changing all along, before Obama took office. As much as some of us would like things to be different, this country will never be the way it was when we were kids. There has been a lot of immigration from other countries, and frankly, I have less of an issue with Mexicans coming across the border, than those from some other countries. If our border was flooded with Canadians coming across, I doubt many would object. I've worked alongside many legal Mexicans who are proud to be Americans. I don't like what is happening now with people from all over the world at our doorstep, bringing diseases, and draining our system financially.
Obama has created the Affordable Care Act, and personally I have no problem with it. I've always worked full time, paid my taxes and have always had health insurance. Since I've retired, the costs of healthcare has risen dramatically, and my monthly premiums have risen each year in ridiculous amounts. The middle class citizen in America has been raked over the coals, and their retirement savings milked dry. With Obamacare, at least the costs have lowered considerably, and people don't have to worry about pre-existing conditions, etc. It may not have been the perfect answer, but something had to be done, and I didn't see any reasonable plans being presented from the other side of the aisle.
What I am completely against, is the gun control agenda. I resent the fact that the government is using shootings by those who are mentally disturbed and under the influence of prescription medications, to further their agenda on removing our gun rights. They should be focusing on the gangs and criminals, not the law-abiding US citizen.
