Acting in total secrecy the Bush administration tells the press what it wants to print and keeps the rest to itself on the familiar grounds of "national security." The mainstream press, now mostly owned by Corporate America, has become nothing more than the public relations arm of the Executive branch of government.
The American people are not even in the game. The "haves" are too busy satisfying their material lust to even notice that the Country has slipped into a savage political and economic bear market. The "have nots" are too exhasted from working two or three jobs in a desperate attempt to make ends meet. And the gap between the two ever widens.
So if you're wondering why no one is out on the streets demonstrating as our country loses its good jobs and goes ever deeper into debt, you need only understand that one group is shopping while the other is "dropping."
