We continue to face a world increasingly impacted by corporations running amuck and flaunting our already overly-generous environmental laws; a corrupt and stagnating Congress who acts in the interest of the biggest donors; open bribery and the stacking and swaying of power in the Supreme Court with no end or solution in sight.
The very watchdogs (the Media) is now predominantly owned by a few corporations who would not have us reporting on ‘stories’ that may affect their standing on wall street, and America remains the only ‘super power’ where fraudulent actions by investors and bankers are not punished.
From what base of common knowledge do I begin to ask a sane and rational question, for there seems to no longer be a common base of knowledge?
So my question is, “how do we address the rampant and abusive mishandling of power, the misinformation/propaganda being doled out hourly in print, on the news shows and online, and get back to a common point of agreement, so we can start to rebuild our civilization?”
It appears we’re moving too fast to allow the miasma of this collective decay of civilization to face a reckoning or a balance on it’s own goodness or merits.
