A roughly day by day account of my interactions with the illusions we experience together as reality.

The Final Countdown
Well this is it. Two more days and this election will be in the books. Hopefully my country will take a new turn in the next 4 years. I think Americans need to go back and read The Constitution, and remember what the founding fathers had in mind when they laid out the plans for our republic. Americans have gotten lazy in their civic duties over the last 15 years and the chickens are coming home to roost. Endless war both abroad and against it's own citizens, warrantless wiretaps, trillions of dollars in debt. This is not the way America is supposed to be. She is broken, bleeding, lying in the gutter and gasping for help. We have been stepping over her every day on our way through our busy lives, on our way to our jobs where we earn less than we should but are thankful just to be working. On the way to the discount store to buy more imported goods from China that we really don't need to begin with. Pissing in the gutter where America lay dying as we pollute the world around to the point of no return. When will my countrymen awaken and realize that there is another option? You are the Government. We pay Them, and in return they strip us of our rights and bailout their corporate cronies on Wall Street. This election day I hope people think of these things as the walk into the booth. It may be the last vote we get.
