Bad Dog --
As with many of us, there but for the grace of God go I.
I can read into this that the state is (I will keep that private out of decency), but an event that you mention gives that away.
We may see poverty as a means of separating people from information -- and of course who gets the basic decencies of life and who must suffer. A culture that has noting to offer but material delights can control people as completely as can any tyranny.
I hope that I did nothing to create the madhouse that our political and economic order is now. I wish that I could have done more, but when things go really bad life is little more than regrets.
I can give you no soothing words. Such words are more obscene than any snippet of pornography or propaganda.
I hate what America has become in so short a time.

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
