A LOT of Americans right now don't feel like they can do anything about
anything, the social dynamics are pretty depressed.

We have the illegal aliens debate here, the most idiotic executive branch,
the most do-nothing congress, the most unjust war on Iraq, and we're losing
in Afghanistan, the middle class is getting eroded down to the poor because
of the imbecilic trickle down theorists, and we don't manufacture hardly
anything ourselves so only low paying "service" jobs are in high
demand....
