Where We Are Today

I'm beginning to believe that government is my enemy. Not a nuisance, nor a necessary evil, but a conglomeration of self-absorbed, self-interested people working directly against the interests of the American public . . . . Americans are being subjected to the most lawless president and administration in the history of the nation. Can't a get law through Congress? Screw Congress, the president will issue an executive decree and have it carried out by an agency, cabinet official or an unelected czar.

The above is an excerpt from  this column  -- a textual equivalent of a global positioning satellite reading. It shows America as currently wallowing in a societal political swamp.
