Analysis & Opinion on the American Experiment

Society

It is far past time we defined where we are heading as a nation. What will the America we build together look like? Because make no mistake, good or bad, we’ll build that future together. Just like we built our current crazy (sur)reality together. Through a myriad of actions, mostly in […]

Forty years of ignoring our basic duty as citizens led directly to the twin disasters we’re seeing in the White House and Congress. Toss in the ongoing legislative tragedies in many local and state governments and America faces a crisis of massive proportions. The Grassroots is coming alive in a […]

At no time in human history has the average person had more access to information than they do today, yet we remain as aggressively ignorant as our most benighted and oppressed ancestors. The thing I find most tragic about the situation in America is how far we have fallen from […]

I’ve been watching a new show called The Last Ship where an Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer boasts the last effective force to fight and cure a global epidemic that killed off the majority of the Earth’s population.

Long known as The President’s Church, this one building perfectly illustrates our relationship with Christianity in America. Given our penchant for poverty and prisons, it seems an odd choice of religious touchstones, but I’m a fan of cognitive dissonance as much […]

Another midterm election cycle completed and the republican party solidified their control over Congress. The media cried, “America has spoken!” Turnout for the 2014 general election was thirty-six percent. Party primaries reached half that pathetic number. Less than half in some districts.
