DEFENSE:

In prideful hubris, immature kids with no military experience and little regard for history or philosophy, but who have made big connections or big bucks riding on easy market abuses, now lecture our military about how best to defend America.

BORDERS:

Cheap politicians cater to base desires, both of Democrats, to ever increase numbers of uneducated voters, and of Republicans, to ever provide cheap, servile labor.

INDEPENDENCE:

Breaking faith and selling out good will, bad actors are everywhere becoming conditioned to leap quicker and quicker to facilitate trading long term values for evanescent gratifications; we drive gas guzzlers even as we enrich the very cultures that lie in wait to destroy us.

MIDDLE CLASS:

Even as the Gini index stretches towards breaking, still we encourage short sighted, ever widening chasms between those who have it all, for whom money talks, and those who have comparatively little, for whom bullsh*t walks.

TARIFFS:

Even as foreigners enrich our politicians, buy up our infrastructure, and undermine our industries, still we entertain and justify the ongoing decimation of American jobs, merely upon intoning of simplistic homilies, such as "a rising tide raises all boats."

LAW:

Even as we Americans sit on our collective butts: The ACLU is destroying respect for values and law and order, by enticing world weary justices on our Supreme Court to ignore law to write their own law, inventing it out of evolving standards and allegiance to the UN; the Congress pimps out law and earmarks, like cheap dates available to the highest bidders; and the President flouts law even as he writes unconstitutional signing statements.
