America's Giant Flim Flam

It is difficulty to discern reality.  I can imagine when the telegraph first appeared on the prairie in the Midwest.  Farmers on the rolling plains had a way to communicate with civilization.  Then came radio, a monumental breakthrough in rural life in America.  Television was next.  What was the first newspaper in America?  I would hope that the newspaper would remain as the most steadfast and thorough of the news reporting agencies, but evidently they are struggling.  In three years time internet news reporting has declined in quality at least 50%.  It is the luck of the draw if anything you read on Reuters, the BBC, or Yahoo News is worthy of attention.  Then there is the Warren Buffet lobby.  If I see or hear this ridiculous story one more time, I will know infallibly internet news reporting is a Five and Dime.  They say Buffet has invested in Geico automobile insurance.  It is rather common knowledge Google is working on a self-driving car.  Supposedly Mr. Buffet is shaking in his designer loafers, because car insurance will become unnecessary.  Do you think this is possible?  With health insurance as one of the largest economic systems in America making a few people rich, is it really feasible that the car insurance lobby will allow this to happen to them?  I think not.  Further I have no interest in a self-driving car.  It is the most idiotic thing of which ever I have heard.  It's not going to happen.  Trying building a subway, a trolley, or a streetcar all of which run on electricity.  This is exemplary of the grossly misguided direction of America's young entrepreneurs.  They are out of touch with reality.  Never have I seen a bubble that is so padded with technology money the inventors themselves are living a life up their own asses.  Google is great, and I use it daily.  A search engine company do not philosophers make.  Leave that to the Cohen Brothers.  Plainly and simply the wealth in the world today is in the wrong hands.  The balance has tipped to the side of nerds writing computer code.  Bill Gates has a foundation.  So does Bill Clinton.  Who is doing more for the world?  It is unquestionable that popular culture in America in the last decade screamingly has left the freeway in a uncontrolled lurch.  It is out of control.  One only has to flick on the tube and what recently has become a news story readily is apparent.  We are being scammed.  We are being railroaded.  We are being swindled of both our lives and our money.  Viva Wall Street!  If only now America is becoming concerned that our youth has an addiction problem, we are below the curve.  In previous generations promiscuous gay sex, snorting cocaine, and drinking and driving all have been considered damaging behaviors.  They were well-recognized.  Today our addictions are new, covert, and clever.  They have been slipped into our drinks, under our noses, and into our veins as coolly as the serpent offering up a bite of that apple to Eve in the Garden of Eden.  They're cool, boy.  It is time to pony up, rejuvenate American journalism, and flush the muck.  FLUSH THE MUCK.
