One might think that since these buildings represent both our government and our heritage, their preservation would be a top priority. But apparently it's not.
What comes first? Money for the military and its foreign campaigns and outposts. That's our true government and our true legacy: Bombs and bullets.
- Health care? Declining.
- Life expectancy? Declining.
- Schools? Declining.
- Jobs? Declining.
- National identity? A sick joke.
But not to worry, because ...
- Drugs? We got plenty.
- Social media? Everywhere.
- Prisons? Yep, we got 'em.
- Aircraft carriers? Almost a dozen.
- Drones? In the skies.
- Killer robots? On the way.
As long as our sons and daughters and robots are out there killing people who must be fucked up because they're not exactly like us ... things are fine. Who cares about a few crumbling buildings, anyway?
