Progress?

This photo really represented American Progress to me, because it shows our progress in our recent history, as well as from when the country first began. Firstly, I think this image represents how the soldiers in Iraq are completely out of their league and are not equipped to be fighting there. We have been in this war for many years now, and despite everything the soldiers are going through, we still have made no progress in ending the war. You would also think that after all the damage that has been done to our country because of war, we wouldve found a better solution to our problems. We have made so much progress in our country, and it has become one of the main world powers, even though it is one of the youngest countries in the world. I believe we should be able to see a problem and come up with a way to fix it, instead of just ignoring it. For example, these soldiers in iraq need help, but i dont know if theyre going to get it. Weve been over there fighting for years, and nothing has gotten better. Dont you think its time for a new solution?
