Great post, Lizzie...

Just have to add one thing... It's about folks turning each other in... Yeah, the corportists have rammed that into our heads... Suspect yer neighbor and turn him if you have the slightest suspicion that he or she is doing this 'or that...

But don't turn in yer boss if he is cutting corners on making those widgets that are going to go into that tank or military aircraft... No, that is the sin-of-all-sins... We used to protect and admire "whistle blowers" because it meant that shoddy crap that the industrialists were making made US less safe... No more... Whistle blowers that turn in the corportists are now considered the ***enemy***...

Man, we have certainly found ourselves on that slippery slope and with the corporate pigs now controlling the information and a severely dumbed down society I really don't see any way off of it...

But great post, Lizzie...
