We Americans are neither too dumb nor afraid to call out much of anything. We’ve just not been exposed to the machinations that have brought us to this sad pass.

We’ve lagged behind in education. We’ve become insular and arrogant. We pay lip service to atrocities being committed around the globe. Our tax dollars are being squandered on proxy and real wars. Middle class is struggling to survive. Mega corporations now sit on American wealth.

We are addicted to Fox News brand of bizarre reporting. It’s become hard to distinguish between fake and real news. We have been played, suckers! Wake up.
