And I couldn't help but thinking that our time of fixing our own problems... Actually doing what has to be done in order to overcome adversity, is long passed us.
There was a time when inventors, engineers and entrepreneurs actually solved more problems than they caused.
But we had to let the "capitalists" take over from the real pioneers, to be followed by the corporatists and all the politicians who catered to them.
To these people, money became more important than safety or improvement of quality of life.
So it's no surprise why we're so hell bent to commodify our very existence to the point where we're no longer classified as human beings rather than statistics that make up some sociopathic corporation's bottom line.
We've lost our way.
And now we have a nation that produces great wealth without providing anything tangible in return, treats people as if they were disposable and drives hard to make desperation the primary motivation of our lives.
America is a bloated empire now, limping its way into oblivion.
