I thought thought the great society give aways starting were supposed to eliminate the underclass.

I thought that all that money spent on education was supposed to improve things

I thought taking prayer our of schools and religion out of public was supposed to usher in a utopia.

why is it that many of these problems seem to have begun around the time that liberals went from being anti big govt to pro big govt?

This is the result of American government of the last 100 years. Obama's only been around for 2.5.

On a separate note...

And yet the quality of life here is SO much better than anywhere else?
 
Look to Illinois, my friends.

Utopia.

Complete Democratic Party domination on the municipal, county, and state legislature for 200 years. Even with the occassional Repub Governor, Dems always maintained complete power of the purse and of law-making.
