Manipulated, used up and discarded by the wealthy, with the full cooperation of a (lol)government for and by the people. The "Great Experiment" that was America, has totally failed. It was brought down by greed. That has caused the ruin of most empires. Personally, I have always thought the "2012" doomsday prophecies, were bullshit. In 50 years, I have seen many "end days" come and go. With the state of our planet and the vast majority of its inhabitants, I have begun to wonder. It may be a devastation. If it is, you know the wealthy probably are aware of and planning for (just like the movie) it. Maybe a few regular people will survive and repopulate. If that scenario unfolds, I pray they are not capitalists. The end result of capitalism, which was brought on by reagan and perpetuated by every president since then, is the end of civilization. The society we had achieved under FDR is not currently recognizable as the same country. We have devolved so far, since reagan, that nearly every single entity is now concerned with profit. Capitalism (however unfair) was invented as an economic system. It is now a governing system. Fortunately, most other "civilized nations" stood up to the inequalities caused by capitalism. Some countries in Latin America finally freed themselves from the evil empires grip and began helping the impoverished, Other countries in Europe and Japan, were rebuilt according to the "Marshal Plan" which introduced a second "bill of rights" that FDR tried to implement in America. If he had been successful, America and the world would be in much greater shape.
