I find the public’s complacency to be disgusting.

“The insane are running the asylum”

You got it!! How the U.S. ended up being run by such a gang of mental cases I will never figure out.

Only theory I have is that Capitalism shot ITSELF in the foot. Did we get so focused on “making the big bucks” that the collective “WE” ignored public service and let the idiots get control??
Instead of electing successfull CEO’s to congress and the White House we let in a bunch of fools that no CEO would hire! Sure looks that way. Unfortunately at this point I don’t see any way back.
I see a whole country, pockets stuffed with worthless paper money..going down with Odumba at the helm..napoleon hat on, Karl Marx and Mein Kampf under his arm..while the rest of the world laughs.
Russians now refer to the States as “New Africa”. Its getting tough to be an American expat...kind of “Rodney Dangerfieldish”.

It’s gotten to the point where the majority of Americans are either too stupid, too corrupt, or kept way too busy. There is no chance of recovering from this.

I have a great example of that.
At a recent barbecue my husband's father in law's ex wife was bragging about how she doesn't read books, ever. She said it was just too hard. She only reads people magazine but mostly looks at the pictures (she's 42). She's raising two children and brags to them about not reading, I needed a drink. Sitting next to me was an O voter from next door and we looked at each other with surprise. Did we actually agree on something? Yes we did, she was a moron. Then again, the O voter showed she was a moron by saying that health care was a right and that rich people are bad to which the non-reading it's to hard lady agreed...
We are so screwed.
