This made my head spin. It's pretty frightening considering most will never even try to understand it. You can't change something if you don't understand it in the first place.

This could've been their plan all along. There is this veneer of "reality" pertaining to the U.S. that everyone assumes is true but right beneath that thin shiny layer the country is something else altogether. It's probably the same in nearly every developed country on Earth.

I hope you and the family have a good 4th! I feel a bit disconnected from the celebration this year. I'm just not "feeling it".
