I keep wondering how we got to the place we’re in (another variation of Hell). I know my parents grew up just accepting everything the government dished out and just accepted the higher and higher taxes and restrictions the fed gov implemented every year. They didn’t question their rights or the fed gov’s ability to do to us what it wanted to do. They were apathetic. I guess that mentality, on a much larger scale, over the past decade....is how we got here. Apathy.

I am literally sick to my stomach, and at this point...it doesn’t look like my illness will be going away....ever.
