"… because old habits die hard, and with hope in my heart, 

I still occasionally turn to the history channel. And one day I hung in there long enough to see that Dickens was right: there is a Ghost of Christmas Future and there he was on the history channel.

"What surprised me was that, according to Christmas Future — well, let me repeat the conversation he had with the ghost hunter: He said, “Oh yes, in 2041 life here in the USA is great. I have wonderful healthcare. I have a great job. Everyone in the US has a great job, great healthcare, good food, good housing. We don’t lack anything. Over 440 million of us are working here together side by side. No one complains. We have no worries.”

"The man with the flashlight said, “We’re all relieved to hear that. You know, from where I’m standing it looks like the Republicans and their big money backers are going have our children living in the exact opposite kind of world that you’re telling us exists in 2041. When did working people finally get together and vote big money out of Congress?”

"“Oh — they never did — I’m in a privatized factory prison in Texas.” – Robert K. Skoglund, the humble Farmer.
