The American Dream

It's Star Wars, Once upon a time, and Reality television all sewed up in one.

The truth is silent. The scientists are gagged. The earth is being tied to the stake and the torches are lit.

Imagination is king. The American Dream has become a nightmare. It is an American Horror Story.

If poor people can't make a living on fify hour work weeks, let them imagine better things. If refugees are being slaughtered all over the world, keep their blood out of sight and not in our country. It we don't believe in global warming then the ice bergs won't melt and if we just pretend the right to bear arms is more important than the children killed in schools across our land, all will be well.

First we were regaled with tales of glory and success. Now our rights and freedoms are being siphoned off for our own good. What will happen to those who defy the gag orders and try to preserve freedom of speech, the freedom of the press? How much more news will be manufactured to fit the script?

Was tomorrow's news written last night in some secret room in a White House that no longer represents a majority of our people?

It's a mad mad world and the king is the craziest one of all. He doesn't know he's the president of the greatest most powerful country in the world -- and soon he won't be. Our slide began in earnest on January 20, 2017.
