    America can't take it anymore?

    Americans don't have a clue what's going on in their own town let alone their own government and the worst part is they couldn't care less. YOU might be to the point where YOU can't take it anymore but Americans can't even tell you what E85 is and why it's a good thing. Americans just can't be bothered by the outside world or by the struggles of their own neighbors 2 blocks down. They vote every 4 years based on talking points and they go into hibernation until the media asks them to listen to their next round of shit. You might care but America doesn't. Sad but true.

    Don't worry, our crushing National Debt will end most of our problems. Ask the average American what the National Debt is and the amount if you want another laugh. America's asleep.
