    No matter how well meaning a person could be, let's say a president, he cannot fix all the many problems. We should NOT expect them to be fixed in this system of things. Why? Because the devil is the one that is allowed to rule right now.

    1 John 5:19 We know we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the [power of the] wicked one.

    Jer. 10:23 I well know, O Jehovah, that to earthling man his way does not belong. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.

    Those two scriptures alone, explain much~that is why we should anxiously await the new system where Peace & Security will reign supreme. Part of Jesus' model prayer is in Matthew 6...

    Matt. 6:10 Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth.

    Isa. 11:3-9 And he will not judge by any mere appearance to his eyes, nor reprove simply according to the thing heard by his ears. And with righteousness he must judge the lowly ones, and with uprightness he must give reproof in behalf of the meek ones of the earth. And he must strike the earth with the rod of his mouth; and with the spirit of his lips he will put the wicked one to death. And righteousness must prove to be the belt of his hips, and faithfulness the belt of his loins.

    And the wolf will actually reside for a while with the male lamb, and with the kid the leopard itself will lie down, and the calf and the maned young lion and the well-fed animal all together; and a mere little boy will be leader over them. And the cow and the bear themselves will feed; together their young ones will lie down. And even the lion will eat straw just like the bull. And the sucking child will certainly play upon the hole of the cobra; and upon the light aperture of a poisonous snake will a weaned child actually put his own hand. They will not do any harm or cause any ruin in all my holy mountain; because the earth will certainly be filled with the knowledge of Jehovah as the waters are covering the very sea.

    Not only will we experience Spiritual Blessings but the evidence of growing to perfection will be obvious right here on earth.

    History tells that man cannot do anything to benefit his fellow man. Politicians are millionaires with no idea how the common man survives. They live in Ivory towers behind high walls. The only time they come out is when they need people to help them accomplish a goal and then they are gone again.

    The only answer to mans problems will be the Kingdom Jesus taught us to pray for in the Lords Prayer.

    Matthew 6:9, Daniel 2:44

    The Bible's plain answer is found at Jeremiah 10:23. "I well know, O Jehovah that to earthling man his way does not belong. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step." It does not belong to man to fix the problems of America or the world. Here is what God promises us he will do to fix the problems. Psalms 37:10,11 assures us that in a little while the wicked will no longer exist and the meek ones will live on the earth. As you already know the entire world needs a healing not a temporary patch in America. We have family living all over the world it would not be fair for once country to receive blessings or help and another to continue suffering. I look forward to God's Kingdom to rule the entire earth.

    Well, its not working now. But the answer is found in the Holy Bible, and it would have to be a group effort: 2 Chronicles 7:14 " If my people who are called by my name, will humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and Will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."

    Only imperfect humans will try to fix Americas problems, thats all we have. God Bless.

    "Imperfect human" is repetitive. To be human is to be imperfect. So yes, a human has the ability to fix the problems in America... One with a good heart.

    Imperfect humans fixed the problems during the Great Depression. You need to have more faith in mankind.
