Well, obviously, I don't actually think that. USA as a system of representative government, if it ever actually existed, certainly doesn't exist now. There is no way for the polity as it exists to stop taking everything from the majority of citizens and giving it to the authoritarian rich. The eventual answer will be a breakup, with the wealthy Pacific states escaping first and various other regional subdivisions giving up on the dream until finally the DC vampires will have no more victims left. Some of these successors to USA will reproduce the same broken system, only at a mercifully smaller scale. Others, I hope, will reduce the harms that arbitrary authority inflicts on humanity. Since we'll all still be Americans, many of us will be able to move to e.g. western Iowa if they figure out the best way to live before the rest of us do. At least once bond-holders are no longer tempted to finance our horrible wars we won't menace the rest of the world with so many of them.
However, when discussing the various symptoms of this fundamental malady, as we are ITT, it's often useful to take the marketing at its word. It would be nice if our IRS were created and operated in the interests of justice for the vast majority of Americans. Let's imagine how that might be, and see how far the actual falls short of the ideal. The quicker we see USA as it is rather than how it has been sold to us from birth, the quicker we'll figure out something else marginally less awful.
