The cause is the incremental increase in power of Marxists and neo-Marxists in our society, particularly in universities and the federal government. I’m afraid these people will not stop unless they are forced to stop.

half the country is delighted with how things are going

Of that half - 10% are the elite who have been bade insanely wealthy at the expense of the remaining 90%. They feel that they can dictate to the rest and can live on an island of utopia (sort of like Martha's Vineyard).

30% are indoctrinated fools who spent too much time in a basket weaving class with Prof Marx.

The other 10% are uneducated folk who would rather live their life under a rock hoping that no one will overturn it.....

"Fast food drive-ins priced as if they were near-gourmet restaurants?"

We are seeing that from the west coast, to the SW and MW.

Familial sharing of a fast food lunch at a mid way distance to see and talk to another relative or friend is now often up to a cost of $40-55 plus a credit card tip @ a minimum of 18%, for 2 lunches.

Of course, gasoline prices are often double or triple, now!
