Did You Know
In days gone by, long gone from our memory...

Americans weren't drugged. They didn't know that Restless Leg Syndrome existed. Somehow, they got by.

Americans weren't drugged. They didn't see 400 commercials on television every hour telling them they had something wrong with them that needed a pill to cure.

Americans weren't drugged. They could see through the obvious lies told by politicians. It was easy to see. Truth was the right way to exist, lies were what you taught children not to do.

Americans weren't drugged. Death wasn't something that happened only on a bloody looking video game. It was real. It happened to people. People. Real people. People that you felt a kinship, a brotherhood, for.

Americans weren't drugged.

Can anyone think clearly anymore after a near decade of lies?

1. And lots of people died from unknown causes
Now such people are able to live for a normal life span because of drugs.

2. Yes if only we lived in the days before TVs and indoor pluming
Then things would be great. Unless of course you are black or Latino or a woman or gay.

Yeah and little known fact but we've had political corruption since Aaron Burr. The truth was never "easy to see."
