I respectfully disagree on the regression thing. Because of the internet, the cannon fodder is becoming self-aware. The only way the power elite can now stop an uprising of humanity is to bomb us all back into the stoneage. They're willing to do it, but I think they've lost their window of opportunity. They should have disarmed America decades ago. As it is now, Americans have had too long a look at the arrogance and disregard for human life by the likes of the Bushes and Clintons. We can't ever go back. These monsters are history. They will be pulled down and ground into the dust of history. Just a matter of time.
