Perhaps not all hope is lost. Maybe our brighter young people will flee to better countries, taking their skills and energy with them to a better deal/country. America has certainly earned such. And maybe more older folks will retirement visa their way out - this nation no longer seems viable for a good number of it's people.
Perhaps things have gone beyond fighting for change - maybe it's now about fleeing. Life is short, the clock is ticking, don't we ALL deserve better than what America has become/is becoming?
