People are getting...dumber .

People are more lazy .

The invention of the computer is the major cause for it .

The vast amount of information available has created the opposite effect of gaining greater knowledge , it has increased the amount of confusion , and people no longer feel the need to get off they're fat asses to do the necessary work of interpersonal communicating .

Just as Television before it , the promise of hope that the computer brought with it , has been ruined by the hands of insatiable greed .

Another tool with the possibility of benefitting mankind ...lost to us .. and enslaved by the capitalistic power-brokers ..and converted ...to be used as a weapon against us , in yet one more attempt ..to keep us contented , controlled , and ...suppressed .

Our current system of Government and its laws are antiquated ( at best ) in regards to the changes needed for social advancement in this modern society .

The foresight of our lawmakers and judges ( of the past 100 years ) has been practically non-existant .

The quality of leadership ..available for us empower to office ..has been stymied by the corruption of two.. self-serving political parties who consistently offer candidates of no true value ..to the masses .

The powers of Monetary capital and Military might are being lost to the people .. upon the visionless decisions of corporate drones groomed and inserted into public office as a means to protect the wealth ..of the few .

To think that the other countries of the world to not see us weakening ..is folly and potential fodder for the opportunistic countries whose power bases grow stronger monetarily and militarily.. as they feed ..off of us .

Resting on laurels.. did not work for the Greeks ,

It won't ..for US Roam'ins ...either .

Was that honest enough ?
