Sipping my morning coffee, and I am totally lost in trying to understand what happened to the America, in which I grew up ? I guess when we became rich enough to do away with barn raiseings, and helping each other every day, we became complacent, and arrogant, and then the class warfare started and everybody wanted all the bucks they could get, and "I got mine, even if I had to steal it from you getting yours. " Not so much those who work for the government, but those elected are on appearances, the worst co conspirators with corporate America.

If I were asked to describe a scene which represented the citizens of the United States, and even extend it to parts of the world, most of my fellow citizens have to be feeling much like the survivors of the Titanic, float in a wide ocean, with no direction, and limited help available...All the while being told, "the ship is fine, the ship is not sinking.'

Unfettered capitalism has become a religion or even a fetish which is something that cannot be argued with. Ayn Rand's gospel of selfishness and Individual with a capital 'I' is also mostly ascendant. We are living with these realities.

I am crushed by what this country has become. Basic decency is now considered "bad". I know such is an emotional response. I will try to get back later with a more level head. Just wanted to let you lnow that I hear you.
