At times, I feel as though it might need to get even worse (gasp, shudder, cringe) before we can really turn the tide.
Humans fall into two groups on the issue of foresight. Some have it, some dont. Some pretend they dont but they do.
Those who have foresight that are SOMEWHAT powerless to stem the tide of destruction are miserable right now. That includes me. I can vote, make a few calls, complain and sweat out election eve. I see where we are headed and no amount of screaming will help. Its like being in quick sand.
Those that have foresight and can do something about it also fall into two categories. There are those who are happy to see the direction the country is going and doing all they can to hasten it. There are also those who want to make necessary changes but arent being heard. Or they cant get enuf support to make the changes. Sen Whitehouse, Sen Warren, and many more in the Democratic party are trying, but at this point the train is running full speed in the wrong direction.
Then there are those who dont have the foresight. They sleep like babies. When they wake up to the destruction, it is too late and they are not sure how we got here.
