What if America went down the toilet and nobody noticed?

(Before It's News)

I'm not sure exactly what psychoanalytic anthropologists do, but William Manson found time to speculate about the future of America's working classes in a story on view at Counterpunch.

And those folks in W. Virginia that Trip Gabriel was writing about in the New York Times are exactly the kind of people Manson is worried about.

Here's the thing; that's the fastest growing demographic in America. Folks are falling through the cracks and then falling through the cracks again till they eventually fall right off the map.

Jobless.

Homeless.

This is happening to entire families. Where once there was a social safety net of sorts to at least break the fall, now there's a growing population building a parallel society beyond the margins of official America.

That 92 million Americans of working age are not in the workforce is an interesting statistic. They can't all be trust funders.

But they are all but invisible to official America, where people watch Fox News and CNN and vote for the Democratic or the Republican party.

What's happening is that official America is losing population and the population beyond the margins is growing by leaps and bounds.

As that population shift gains momentum, it will have the potential to generate radical change. Official America won't notice, because Fox and CNN will continue to reassure that ever-shrinking America that everything is hunky-dory, God's plan is unfolding as it should, American Empire is more virile and virtuous than ever…

All the way into the abyss.

  • “what if America went down the toilet and nobody noticed”. really no one noticed. We know its happening, those of us who prefer to stay in the loop or also known as being informed as to what this regime, illegal at that, is attempting. So how can you ask such a dishonest question, there is simply no reasoning behind it as we know what is going on, the only question that needs to be asked is “what the hell are we going to do about it?”
    If you think the next election is going to change anything, you are just plain ole’ ignorant and deserve to be lost in the mix. Steady yourselves gentleman, steady as she goes, its about to happen, especially when it become known throughout the world of this fraud and pretender-n-thief is actually a plan intended to burn us all down.
    Good luck and GOD Bless the Patriots of the world. In GOD we trust, all other are going to pay a huge price for this fraud they forced upon everyone.
    Semper Fi. to the day I die.
