There is little within my control even though I rebel at that very thought. Several times in recent years, physical control was wrested from me and more recently I find my mental well-being is not being enhanced by the lies and ugliness that permeate the current state of our affairs. And more frightening is the fact that this is being absorbed and re-spat by people I know. Anger and division are signs of the times. (Un)Civil war could come again.
I'm puzzled that we hear so little about the planned highway through the US, the size and construction of the embassy(ies) in Baghdad, the source of and spending of political monies. So little about the faultiness of the Diebold machines. So little about the planned union of Canada, Mexico and the US.
While inundated with verbiage dedicated to this current do-little congress, the fact remains that it has been anything but a do-little. Laws passed in the dead of night with little fanfare and less input are difficult to track down but when one spends the necessary time, it turns into a scary proposition.
The herrings thrown at us have little to do with real life. Those laws that control real life are being swept under the rug.
Corruption and hypocrisy have been around since the beginning of time but never have so few been allowed to do so much.

Good post. We don't hear of the topics you mention because reporters are basically lazy. You are one of the very few people I know that knows of them.
But knowing you I'm not surprised. Kudos!
