I hear from Europeans who saw the telltale signs of fascism taking the reigns during these last ten years. Most of my friends have left the USA by now because the atmosphere is eerily reminiscent of what their ancestors went through in the 1930s all over Europe.

Once the intelligentsia, the inventors and artists are leaving a country, watch out! These are usually the bravest and most adventurous folks who don't shy away from taking on the biggest challenges. When these people no longer see a way back from the hellhole of a police state in a closing society, the rest of the citizens are in for a very rude awakening.
