I love the land where I was born. I love the ideas I've heard about in school, such as liberty and justice. Unfortunately I am not seeing much of those two virtues exhibited by our supposed leaders.

The one thing I'm thankful for now is that I can criticize the government without being penalized for it. However, I don't know how much longer that right will last, either.

I live here because my family is here, and my parents are getting frail. If I didn't have my family, I'd be in Canada so fast it'd make your head spin.
