WE'VE GOT ABOUT A THIRD OF THE POPULATION OUT IN RIGHT-WING LA-LA LAND, WONDERING WHO THEY CAN SCREW NEXT. THEY AIN'T GOT A CLUE. THEY LISTEN TO POLITICIANS WHO WILL DO WHATEVER THEY CAN TO MAKE THEMSELVES RICHER AND THE REST OF US POORER. BUT THEY HOOT AND HOLLER FOR THEM AND WAVE THE FLAG AND SING THE SONG. IT'S AMAZING HOW FAR ROBOTICS HAS COME. ANOTHER THIRD OF THE POPULATION REALLY DON'T GIVE A SHIT. THEY ARE BEAT DOWN. THEY GAVE UP LONG AGO. THEY'RE SCREWED AND THEY KNOW IT. THEY CAN'T EVEN GET IT UP FOR A FIGHT. THEY'RE ALONG FOR THE RIDE. OH, THEY WILL BITCH AND MOAN AT JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING, BUT THEY WON'T TAKE TIME AWAY FROM THE TV TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY ARE PERMANENTLY DEPRESSED AND SATISFIED TAKING ANTI-DEPRESSANTS. THAT LEAVES ABOUT A THIRD OF US TO DO THE WORK REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN A DEMOCRACY. I GET SO MANY REQUESTS FOR TIME AND MONEY THAT I CAN'T POSSIBLY KEEP UP. SOME DAYS IT GETS OVERWHELMING, BUT I CONTINUE TO BELIEVE THAT I, OR RATHER WE, CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
