Food for thought, as a crucial Election is fast approaching: As individuals, reaching consensus in politics remains the elusive commodity. Regarding public affairs, we tend to attach ourselves to those views most compatible with our own, rather than scrutinizing the merits of every argument. One of the most menacing of favored hobgoblins is the long established myth of the American social hierarchy. The U S is not as were led to believe a three-class Nation; wealthy, middle class, poor. Rather we live under a distinct two class system consisting of the independently wealthy 1% haves, and 99% struggling have-nots. The term middle class is manufactured illusion; hypocritical mirage. A cursory examination suggest that we, the have-nots are an at risk society, existing hand to mouth, merely surviving through the benevolent grace of circumstance. Exercising a wee bit of logical consideration, should bring one to the obvious realization that the future is indeed dire. It is within our collective best interest to cast aside whatever dubious inclinations, and hold steadfast the mantle of mutual understanding that were survivalists indeed, together bound in this treacherous storm. When considering political rhetoric, steer clear the hobgoblins. Whatever learned bigotry and personal prejudices should be contextually unlearned. And with conscience as moral beacon, proceed accordingly - always toward what he/she ultimately believes ones own best interests. ~James B. Earley
