Steve Kerr on his biggest concern about America Today
“When I finished college almost forty years ago, if you went to school and got a degree, you could get a job and you could buy a house. Now that's out of reach for most people between student debt and home prices and the economy slanted toward the very, very top one per cent. We don't really have a middle class, and we don't have what used to represent the American Dream, which was: you can do better than your parents. We're going backward on all that. Our family is lucky. I'm in a position where my family can live well. But there are millions of people out there, young people who are looking at the horizon and saying, "I did everything I was told I needed to do, and I can't buy a house, and I can't chase my dream." Think about what that means for the stability of communities and cities and a whole country.”

America is such a fascinating place because this man is providing a service that actually materially benefits people, arguably what the government is designed to do, and you will still see articles upon articles trying to convince you he’s actually doing a bad thing.

When two armed government forces start wearing friend-foe markings so the local community understands what kind of Americans they are, the USA has crossed a dangerous redline.
“It was not Hitler or Himmler who abducted me, beat me, shot my family. It was the shoemaker, the milkman, the neighbor, who received a uniform and then believed they were the master race.”

You know who else went door to door? Hitler's Nazis who arrested my friend Werner Reich when he was 14 years old and put him in 3 death camps. He lectured till the day he died to warn us about THIS
