America

48 Stars

I saw a 48 starred United States flag today. I wanted to purchase it, but decided not to just yet.

It reminded me of another time when the United States was simpler, before the World Wars, before whatever happened in the early 20th Century that made the world more power hungry than ever before. 

Something happened that shook the world. Maybe it's just fear. Maybe it was aliens.

All I know is when those two bombs were dropped on Japan there was no turning back. To contain an empire you need to instill fear. The worst kind of fear is the subtle fear. Fear to leave home.

I saw 48 starred flag today. It made me reflect. My ramblings could go on forever but there are jobs to found and life to be lived. Be free fellow Earthlings. Be Free.

 

Independence Day

Happy Independence Day! As recent as 237 years ago a group of Americans stood up to the powers that be because they believed in a better life; just like the Egyptians are doing now.

Bring on the violence! Bring on the beer! I predict the next 50-100 years will be a memorable one for not just this country, but all of humanity.

It's NEVER too late for drastic change, America. No empire lasts forever. Let's take it to the streets!
