"Go back to bed, America, your government has figured out how it all transpired. Go back to bed America, your government is in control. Here, here's American Gladiators. Watch this, shut up, go back to bed America, here is American Gladiators, here is 56 channels of it! Watch these pituitary retards bang their fucking skulls together and congratulate you on the living in the land of freedom. Here you go America - you are free to do what well tell you! You are free to do what we tell you!" -Bill Hicks
This place is nothing like the stories in history books, nothing like the stories my grandparents tell me, nothing like the "good ole days." The problem is that, it is my own fault. There are still opportunities and I experience an enormous amount of freedom. It is just that American culture has conditioned me to not appreciate it or know what to do with it. Yet, less and less I am ignorant to its existence and more and more I find something to do with it. Unfortunately It is becoming clear to me that other people are not experiencing this phenomenon. Every time I meet a person aware of the big picture, politics, culture, history, and the sort, I meet at least ten people who are blissfully stewing in their ignorance. In America majority rules, ignorance wins.
