A State of Confusion

If I didn't know better I would think God is doing His best too assure the utter failure of mankind.  When He looks down at His earth there can be no similarity to Christianity at least in America.  While most of us understand America was founded upon unscrupulous murderous imperialism, the country has done well at saving face.  It has been the big "Razzle Dazzle," and it continues.  The hypocrisy is rife, so rife that promulgating it seems more wearisome than telling the truth.  Since I graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill in l985, never have I felt much allegiance to America.  Beginning teacher salary then was around $18,000.00 a year, not enough for me to start a family.  Today teacher pay in North Carolina is the second lowest in the nation, and both North and South Carolina are rife with defense dollars.  There is money sprinkling everywhere from national defense.  Our country spends more time preparing for war than educating our youth.  In this preparation of war defense contractors are getting wealthy, just like the Wall Street cronies who continue to pilfer our meager salaries.  It is necessary Hillary Clinton not be elected president, because she is a Wall Street insider.  I am not sure always she has been, but she is now.  A guest on Charlie Rose's program last night summed it up perfectly.  The former Secretary of State has a dismal record of public service, but this blog entry is not about her.  It is about the American debacle, formerly which has been the "American Dream."  The last decade of technological advance has led our country down a path of human lunacy.  If a fraction of a percentage of the money belonging to the elite were spent on America's proper and necessary ideals, the world's problems would be solved.  Instead America gambles.  The rich are gamblers, and they enjoy their game so much that the economic infrastructure of our feeble country has become compromised at the expense of the common man.  I do not agree with this or "the" lottery.  It is the quintessential metaphor of ridiculousness.  It is lunacy handing uneducated Americans millions of dollars, that should be spent repairing our infrastructure.  It is that old "Razzle Dazzle" in the fullest sense.  It is a ruse to keep the schmucks distracted from their meager lives.  Give the common a bit of hope in the face of our constant and continuing rape and pillage by corporate America. The ConditionofAmerica is so satirical, that longer can I believe it.  How can anyone live in a state when your existence is a farce?  Comedy.  It is difficult, because the Christian part of me still yearns to do the right thing.  I drink too much and I lust, but still I wake up compelled to try to do the right thing.  It no longer works, and I spend the majority of my day trying to forget the Protestant Work Ethic.  It is why I drink, because reality is too unfathomable.  There is no logical way to discern a trace of Christianity via our traditional avenues.  That is because the media was the first prisoner, and the Nazi's captured it first.  More to cum.
