just blog about tomatoes and grandchildren and maybe the weather, oh, no, not the weather! The deniers are in charge and there is No Global Warming! By declaration, they said so! Life would be so pleasant if we just didn't talk. as in, not voting, can't be bothered.
This "revolution" could have happened at any time. We could have had our jobs back a long time ago. We just don't want to go to any effort or expense to get them back. It is easier to have others force this upon us. We always had the opportunity to "Buy American", but face it, Walmart is so easy, just down the street, one stop shopping and cheaper! We want cheap gasoline and will frack the hell out of the earth to get it! Open up those coal pits and let the miners die of black lung disease, the air get filthy, the water poison. Drill, baby, drill. We have not destroyed the Oceans...enough!
Is any one old enough to remember that previous to our entering WWII there were Serious Debates in our Congress as to which side to join? We are just a hair breath away and it is frightening.
We want to go back in time and "Make America Great Again". Great but not gracious. In the 1950's and '60's when our Freeway systems were constructed, when NASA was created and we did go to the Moon, we had a Progressive Income Tax. In those days the wealthy paid their share. Income tax went to 90% and they still grew richer. No one is talking about that now. I wonder where the money will come from? Reduce SS, Reduce medical, Reduce Education. It will come from the working poor.
I am not really worried about all this, History Swings this way and that and Our System still moves slowly. Women will suffer now and maybe for 100 years to come, just more of what they had for the last Centuries. I hear they are tougher. Minorities have always gotten the short shift. We only believe in equality as long as we get ours! I worry about the Planet, the garbage, the strip mining, the water and air we breath. We have never been good stewards of this planet and I think we will get worse.
Like spoiled children. What a Wonderful Gift we have been given, and we just trash it.
