(#5845) We are imploding...

      It seems that we Americans, at least too many of us are willing to go down with the sabotage of our ship. The Captain has lost the compass and is acting out in a reckless way. There seems to be no one who can stop him so it is to the bottom of the ocean we go. Each day he finds a way to destroy what little hope I cling to a little bit more. It is getting to the point where the end of us is more visible than the rescue of us. How this all plays out soon over the next short period of time will either seal our doom or inhibit it. It is never too late for the narrative to change but we are late into that possibility.
     I like many of us are bewildered that there isn't some form of a check and balance working feverishly to interject into this woeful and waning process. I cannot force myself to the realization that we all deserve this because I know we all don't. Yet the facts say different. How one deranged individual could obsess us into inaction is the biggest clue. Right before our eyes the very foundation of how we live and exist is being undercut with a sadistic glee. Yet we are all too unprepared to do anything at all. If anything we all should just stop what we are doing and descend on the perpetrator of our woe. If we all just stop and aim our attention on the one who is harming us the harm will stop.
     But it seems we are not even able to do the most simple task of protest. We just continue to go ahead like all things will be fine enough as we are about to be helmed to our demise. Like the frog who won't jump out of the pot of the slowly heating water, we just go about our lives with a numb uncaring. Those of us who are seeing our plight are frustrated that we are still in the minority. We will likely create a liferaft for ourselves and be ready for disembarking when the ship does go down. I don't know what to say to my fellow countrymen. I cannot force you to see what is happening or care that it is happening. I will keep saying though that it is happening and you have little time left to stop it.
