We're just reaping what we've sown for the last 50 years.

Apparently, it's become more important to know who Snookie is than who the Prime Minister of Britain is. Apparently, whether Clinton got a blowjob is more important that what the unemployment rate and GDP growth are. Apparently, whether or not George Bush actually served in the TANG 30 years ago is more important than whether we can afford to go to war in the middle east. Apparently, whether Obama is a Muslim is more important than the fact that we threw billions at the banks so they could continue on with business as usual per JPMC.

We're doomed by our own lack of attention and apathy. We care about things that don't matter and don't care about things that do.

I hope I'm wrong and we right the ship and get back to better times.
