much of the negative social, financial, and moral conditions that we face today. The lobbying sucesses of special interest in electronic and print media has altered what is delivered to that sector of the population that use them as gospel. The days in this country get sadder and sadder for the underserved and even for those who dream of bright futures. How can media just kind of brush over the fact that the Congress of this once great nation refuses to vote for anything that will create jobs that will pull some from the edge of despair? How can a once great nation pass legislation that strips the hungry of much needed social programs to feed their families? How can a once great nation relegate education of its youth to heated discussions on funding for the simplest of things such as pencils and other supplies that we find that parents are now having to provide for schools? How can a once great nation refuse to address the environmental issues that continue to devastate our natural resources? How can a once great nation with a history of doing the right thing after an era of civil rights now seek to enact many laws that will return to pre civil rights violations? And why is the greatest nation in the world allowing its media to poison the minds of so many with lies and distortions under the guise of freedom of speech? No wonder the masses have taken to occupying all over this nation. Just collecting my thoughts.
