Good recital of all the craziness. The important question is, what now? These travesties occurred because we allowed them. If we continue to allow them, they will persist. They're fundamentally a result of government corruption. We have an opportunity in November to replace some of them. If we don't work as hard as we can, each and every one of us, to support rational candidates, we're begging for more abuse. Please, sir, may I have another?

More people than we realize are dissatisfied with our situation, but mostly endure their unhappiness quietly. That's why we lose. The first step is to become more outspoken. You'll lose some friends, but you'll give hope to others, and multiply the reactions necessary to correct the mistakes. You build an army (or an Air Force) one soldier at a time.

Tour de force! Thank you for the blow-by-blow of what it means to be terrorized by our leaders and the power-brokers.

Well researched quick overview with links for people willing to listen to other sources than the official policy setters. I'm going to copy this and email it to some who may not delete me from their contacts.
