Well said. I agree with you on all of it. Money is god in this country, possibly everywhere. Those few with the most of it have unequaled power over the rest of us. They manipulate the market to maximize profit, they..oh, hell. I am nowhere near as articulate as you are. The worst of it is, we have truly become 'a nation of sheep', and it seems most of us believe whatever we are told. Critical thinking is becoming a lost art, to our peril. Unfortunately, most of us seem too stupid to realize it. The level of self-delusion in this country today boggles the mind, and it really, really makes me sad to have my pride in my country destroyed. This is not my America. Not the one I was raised to believe it was, anyway.
