15 Examples That Show How Completely And Utterly Insane Our Society Has Become

Lately, watching the news is almost the same as watching a horror show. You never know what you are going to see each day, but it is almost certain that it's going to be something crazy. The things we're about to share with you in today's video may be weird, some can make you laugh, and others are simply infuriating, but they all point to the same conclusion: from the very top to the very bottom, America is going insane. We've truly become a brainless society, and while our country goes from bad to worse, most people remain unaware of our true problems. That's why we gathered some simple but revealing examples of just how nonsensical things have become in our country.

Even as our domestic food production continues to decline, every year, 40% of the country’s food supply goes to waste. On average, Americans waste approximately 1.4 billion tons of food in a given year. This means that each year we throw away about $161 billion worth of food, or $1,500 per person.

At the same time, the U.S. is the most overweight country on Earth. Worldwide, 38 percent of men and 36.9 percent of women worldwide are either overweight or obese. In America, 71 percent of men and 62 percent of women fall into that category.

Meanwhile, the vast majority of Americans are up to their necks in debt. Over the past 50 years, we became addicted to credit cards. For some, debt is a simple way of life. In fact, if you have $10 and no debt, you are richer than 15 percent of all American households. But can Americans be forgiven for thinking debt doesn’t matter? Apparently.

After all, it doesn’t matter to the U.S. government. Our current national debt stands at $30.5 trillion. While our government spends trillions to prop up financial markets and fund unnecessary projects, our crumbling infrastructure continues to threaten the lives of U.S. citizens all across the country. According to a 2019 estimate released by Fortune, a modest amount considering we pay almost $500 billion in interest on the national debt every year.

In America, the poor population experiences the most extreme disparities than elsewhere. In comparing poverty in the U.S. to the other 25 developed nations tracked by OECD, American poverty is both more prevalent and more severe.

The United States is also the developed nation with the highest rate of homeless people. Advocates say that official numbers only show a fraction of the problem. On a given night, approximately 1.5 million people sleep on the streets in America.

So if the United States is the wealthiest nation in the world, why are so many people homeless? The answer isn’t simple. But there’s a clear disparity between the wealthiest people and those at very the bottom of the economic food chain. We also have the largest prison population in the entire world. The country currently has more than 2.2 million people behind bars. That represents nearly 22 percent of the total global population of inmates.

Our society has been turned upside down, and our nation has become a giant circus. And though it can be entertaining to watch for a little while, it won’t be too long before the entire thing comes crashing down on top of all of us.
