I'm afraid we haven't seen the worst of it yet. I don't mean to be pessimistic I just think that the more people out of work and those losing homes will inspire a rise in the hostility of the extremes in this country. We aren't mature enough to handle it and come together.

A few years back, I made a mental note and a prediction that this was the direction we are headed. Hopefully the rest of my prediction is far less correct.

Absolutely. Although I don't share the same level of pessimism as the others. Wonderful write.

...mFs...a collage de grimness needs framing. good write with angst in hand.
