I share your feelings ... this has all been done by making American people think more individually rather than socially, so now a small incentive to one person can keep it quite.
They have perfected the art of How to keep people ignorant of all the deeds they are doing, people have sports, they have movies they have movie start about which they can gossip, they have facebook, they have WhatsApp, it's all a facade to keep them away from discussing the real issues, the real problems which they can solve. Look at some big companies like Monsanto which is destroying our land, look at these Arms Dealers which are supplying at both ends.
It seems to have all started after breaking the labor unions, which used to be a big force before and used to control this minority of wealthy people, but now this minority have all the power, they can manipulate media, they can manipulate even the person who is supposed to serve these people. We need something really disruptive in this field otherwise, we are set of doom.
