A look at the near future:

A man walks into a grocery store with a gun and no one can question him because of the law.

The first cautious shopper walks into that same grocery store wearing a bullet proof vest will probably be approached to ask them what they're up to because they look suspicious.

Everything is backwards in this country.

Things that would kill us are legal and encouraged.

See the pattern?

Pollution, lack of health care, hunger, guns, corrupt leadership in time of crises, to name a few of these things.

The list is long.

You can add sugar to that list. So much that is bad for us, but the law sides with the big campaign donors.

The poisoning of baby food has been going on for such a long time, despite outcries from the public and congress.

As always the question is, who benefits and how?

I didn't use to be such a cynic, but if you live long enough, you just cannot deny facts right in front of you.
