“ The Sickness in America”
America the beautiful is ill. It has a sickness that is putting us all in danger of becoming infected with a most destructive malady. What is it that is so insidious it spreads without notice until the infection is so severe it begins not only affecting the ill, but the entire population by proxy?
The will of the people spoke for change in the direction of America’s future. The will of the majority of Americans spoke loudly to remove the ideologies of the last administration that damaged America’s image and direction in foreign relations with our allies. Americans spoke it loudly with a vote instead of intimidation or coercion and followed the tenants of our constitution and bill of rights.
The illness that had been growing over the last 20 years or so made itself manifest in the tactics and mind set of the “US and Them incursion into the halls of government, industry, and citizenry. The division based upon the desire for political gain and power put a wedge between the cooperation of differing political ideologies ethnicities and other entities.
Ill will is the infection, and it attacks mentally and or physically. Ill will, the pathogen produced by labeling everyone other than your group “Them, the Enemy, the Evil. It seduces some into the realm of hate, violence, slander, and self righteousness. Us at that point is no longer the U.S. of the American citizen living by the will of cooperation, discussion, and solution, but the use of negativism to procure political gain at the cost of Americanism and “the Rule of Law”. We are literally looking down the barrel into an America that throws aside it’s dignity and becomes just another most dangerous place in the world.
