Why I am disturbed

I don’t get upset very often, but I am now.

I see that the inept stupidity foolishness of our congressmen and women and our president is destroying our nation. We lurch from crisis to crisis with drunk (with power) politicians fighting over the wheel of the Titanic. All the while we are moving closer and closer to the iceberg.

They don’t care. I do. All I see is that their number one priority is being reelected while the public is directed towards the abattoir.

We are in sad shape and must fix Washington. They are the ones driving our country into the ground.

Back in the day, a TV commercial coined my thoughts. It was an ad for vegetables using a cartoon character that was the Jolly Green Giant, now known as the Green Giant. As you can see from this YouTube video, the giant was big and strong, but somehow lacking in intelligence. That’s how I thought of our government and its policies… big, immensely strong, naive and not very bright. Why lacking? Our government doesn’t know what good judgement is, but depends on sheer strength to blunder through life.

I still think that. Even more so based on its blunders over the past fifteen years.

There are solutions. We must take them to stop our slow decline.
