We are more like sheep and lemmings than anything else. Why is that, I wonder? There have been warnings about the current state of affairs for years in books like Peak Everything, The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America, Nation of Sheep. But we seem to be so busy just keeping our heads above water, we don't even see the sharks. (I'm practicing mixing my metaphors.)Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14555472024981357622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-84738608168900121292012-06-11T12:43:01.284-02:302012-06-11T12:43:01.284-02:30Anyone who still believes that the people with the...Anyone who still believes that the people with the power are the ones out in front that we vote for is naive.

I totally agree with you Annie, I wonder how we can best change these things? I get tired just thinking about it.

Here in Nova Scotia we have an NDP government that we all thought would change things, it hasn't. I believe that change doesn't come from changing a government, the forces that a liberal party or leader are up against are too powerful. Americans are really not much different from us, they want much of the same things and they aren't getting them. Neither are we. Harper is evil, but a different leader isn't going to change things.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03787701515460812026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-89392299828744257072012-06-10T01:07:49.022-02:302012-06-10T01:07:49.022-02:30Yep!
