"...so it goes"



So today the Senate of the United States of America stripped 25 millions of it's citizens of their health care. This to fund a massive tax cut for the Hyper-Rich. This the most massive transfer of wealth from the common people to the rich in our history.

Yes history was indeed made today. The details I leave for you to google, and read. They're a horror of meanness, and cruelty.

There was applause.

This act of un-shaded heartlessness was applauded by the politicians that did it. Soon no doubt by the people that it will harm. They will applaud too having no idea what just happened,...till they get ill. They their children or elders. Then they'll in horrified confusion will be shattered. Then they'll learn. Then they'll know what they did to themselves.

So it goes.

We are a stupid and cruel people. America's death, which is what we are witnessing, will prove a catastrophe to everyone within it, an immense relief to almost everyone else.

A world without American influence will be a short lived joyride for the world. They will quickly discover many nations will. Where their food, and bankrolling came from. The democracies such as they are will find themselves facing Russia, and China alone. They'll also face an angry third world, and caliphates alone as well.

We will be behind our walls exterminating dark skinned people queers uppity women the too educated, and ordering pizza as usual. This which is what most have wanted for decades will at last for them come to pass.

Future American historians,...if any. Will see the era from FDR to Obama as the zenith of the open free American democracy. Likely never to be repeated.
