I found an excellent review for what appears to be an intriguing book on the decline of America. I've been speaking on these, and related topics for quite some time now. I think that it is becoming increasingly obvious that America is sick, and getting sicker with each passing day. There doesn't appear to be any will or desire inside the people of America to fight this. They have been lied to, controlled, conditioned, and mentally, spiritually, and physically threatened and attacked by their 'leaders'. Unfortunately, most people do not understand this on an intellectual level. They are the victims of intense mind control techniques, but vehemently deny it. But the proof is in the results.
America has been financially hollowed out. Manufacturing and other means of production, which constitute the foundation of a healthy economy, is decidedly absent. It has been wholly exported to 'Third World' countries where labor is much cheaper. So what we have now is a spoiled population that has been accustomed to a high standard of living that is no longer sustainable, economically speaking. In short, we have all of the finer tastes and desires for filet mignon, but only have the financial ability to pay for Spam (the cheap, substandard meat, not UCE).
The Powers-That-Be have engineered this situation. While the average American has been watching American Idol and listening to Britany Spears on his or her Ipod, the PTB has been employing the highest credentialed experts in psychology, advertising, conditioning, persuasion, marketing, etc., to maximize the mind control effect on everyone who watches TV (which is probably over 90% of people). This is why there is no outcry over the dastardly things that are being done to destroy America. These people have been careful not to make any perceived sudden moves that would cause such a discontinuity in the status quo that it would jarringly wake up the American Sheeple. Slow and steady towards the destination (the destruction of the middle class, destruction of trade unions, eradication of true education, assimilation of individuality, demoralization of the populace, impoverishment of many, the culling of the herd, etc.) wins the race. The race goes not to the swift, but to the persistent and diligent. There are very few persistent, diligent, independent thinking Americans left after 50+ years of acculturation by mass media.
This sounds incredulous to most, but this attitude is merely a symptom of high levels of conditioning. They say that when Columbus arrived at the shores of the Americas, the natives couldn't see the ships that were on the sea on the horizon because it didn't fit into their belief structure. In like manner, most people thought that the 'conspiracy theorists' were crazy when they were not in agreement about the Iraq and Afghanistan wars which have subsequently been proven to have been justified based on outright lies. We could go on and on with numerous examples of this. The point is that everybody knows that politicians lie, but yet the People continue to strongly desire to believe them! This is a textbook case study of chronic cognitive dissonance. It takes no Ph.D. in psychology to understand this, but just an ability to think for self without being spoonfed 'your' opinion by some highly paid media toadie.
With the erosion of the economy looming in the future, Americans will not have to believe what I, and others like me say. They will be living with the results of choosing chronic apathy over concern, ignorance over careful study, entertainment over substance, attacking and villifying "conspiracy theorists" instead of adroitly questioning 'authorities', 'going-along-to-get-along' over standing up against the alleged majority on principle, voting Demopublican over refusing to vote for obviously corrupted candidates, watching television over reading books with real content. I can guarantee you that the fruits of such choices will not be pleasant.
I hope that in some way, a significant number of people will be inspired to work to put an end to this pathetic state of affairs in America. I realize that there are a lot of people in America who do not agree with the cabal that has hijacked the country. Let us hope, for the sake of ourselves, our children, and the rest of the world that we succeed in putting an end to this scourge of humanity that calls itself the leadership of America.

Why would our leaders sell us out?
I'm sure that many people who are 'normal' find it extremely hard to believe that 'our government would never turn on its own people'. The simple truth of the matter is that not only would they 'turn' on us, but that they aren't even 'our' government! This simple fact explains a lot of the observations that we make in regards to this country and its operation.
First of all, anyone who has any experience with the court system can readily tell you that it's NOT 'our' court system! Just try to figure out what happens when you get into court, especially traffic court. It's the equivalent of a kangaroo court, a sham that's made to appear fair. But in reality, it's only there to separate you from your Federal Reserve Notes. You would know that 'innocent before proven guilty' is something that you only see them talk about on Law and Order, but that it's only some propaganda designed to keep you complacent. And don't bother asking them to actually explain to you how they're operating and what jurisdiction they're working from. All you'll get is a lot of nothing...
Take a look at how 'our' elected officials behave. Now I know that nobody's perfect, but how in the hell can we look at the difference between the country in 1950 and the condition in which we find ourselves and not be totally pissed? Before, we were the world leader in most categories: manufacturing, per capita income, biggest creditor nation, a powerful, GROWING economy with little inflation, wholesome food and entertainment, etc. But today, we have lost the vast majority of our manufacturing base, per capita income shrinking (in real terms, not the government propaganda that passes for statistics), biggest debtor nation, weak, diminishing economy, declining quality of food (witness junk food), etc. We used to have some sense of morals, but today, there is no sense of morals and anything goes. We are seeing the decimation of industries in which we used to have no competition.
The earnings of most people (especially working class people) are being rapidly reduced, if not eradicated through the export of jobs to places that pay slave wages. But the even worse part of that situation is that OUR wages are being reduced to slave wages as well. If you can extrapolate to the end of this ride, it would appear that the plan is to reduce the wages of EVERYBODY to slave labor wages. Unfortunately, the majority of the people in America have been dumbed down in order to make it possible to perform this controlled destruction of this country. I just saw an article that demonstrates that the average American watches almost 5 hours of television (aka. idiot box) every day. Wonder how or why the alleged leaders of this country can get away with just about anything?
Think about the level of mind of the majority of television programming. I'd have to say that most of it is around a 5th grade maturity level. Most people get headaches and have tantrums if you dare to attempt to even suggest that they make any meaningful use of their minds. And this includes many people with graduate degrees! I must say that this is definitely a demonstration of the principle that actions have consequences. The less thinking you do (this goes for entire nations as well), the less thinking that you can do. If you don't use it, you lose it. Most people in America have been acculturated to avoid thinking and reasoning. It's just so much easier to follow the crowd and accept the facts given to you by the experts on TV.
With all that said, as I've said before, this is not happening by accident. The faction that controls the country have specifically engineered the results that we are observing. It is not a coincidence. The leaders behind the scenes have spent billions on developing a system for manipulating and controlling the perception of the people. It is an integrated plan that has been in operation for at least 50-60 years, and is now to the point where it is a precise science.
Most Americans have been inundated with propaganda and garbage that they still view America as basically the same country that it was in the 1970's. This is not fact because as we discussed above, many things have changed in this country, and not much has changed for the better. Even though the perception is flawed, it is difficult to express these facts to the victims because they are complacent, lazy, and full of inertia that keeps them from questioning things. Critical thinking and analysis appears to have gone the way of the Dodo bird. I think that some of the things I've been saying here provide a great prelude to an article that I found that encapsulates most of the concepts that I've put forth right here. I don't like the direction in which this country is being guided. I believe that I've seen polls that show that most people in America feel the same way. Most people feel powerless to change things, mainly because they are victims of mental programming, disseminated mainly through the television, but is also passed by most of the major institutions in society. It is an integrated plan that works synergistically. The whole is a lot more powerful than the parts.
I've just delineated some of the problem to you. Now, in the interests of fairness and relevancy, I will discuss some of the solutions. First, you need to start watching less television. I'm not saying that you should go 'cold turkey', but it probably wouldn't hurt you if you did. Addictions are not easy to break, but it can be done. I have members of my own family that lose their tempers if you try to turn off the television, so I know that it can be tough.
If you can't handle turning off that idiot box, then at least exercise some thought effort when you watch. Don't just accept the presumptions and conclusions that are being induced and given to you. Question things, do your own research, and try to see things with a 'big picture' perspective. Get the other side of the story whenever you can. One of the most powerful elements in social conditioning is the way that television is used to set conceptual boundaries for thought. Don't underestimate the power of this. It is analogous to the shepard putting the fence around the sheep. If you can control where the sheep go, you can exercise total control over them. The same thing is done to humans in society. Very few people dare to hop over their given fences. Just because we've done something for years does not mean that it's the best way to do it. Try to think in new ways. Be open to new possibilities and perspectives on things. Stagnant water gets putrid and septic. You don't want a putrid, septic mind!
Also, you might want to get more active. Voting is ok, but is highly overrated as a way to change the political and social dynamics. Voting is NOT activism! Nobody ever voted his way to freedom! Learn about law, business, anything that can have some sort of social impact. Question authority. Who are these people who purport to represent 'the People', and from where do they get their alleged authority to impinge upon your freedom, especially when you haven't harmed another person with your actions? Spread the word about freedom and questions that you may have that aren't being adequately answered by the 'talking heads' and other media sources. Don't just 'go along to get along', because that is what has brought this country to this critical point in history.
Those were just a few suggestions. Also, be sure to spread the word, and find like-minded people to keep you upbeat and in the realm of 'possibility thinking'. We can improve things, but we can't do it alone. It's going to require people to work together while also maintaining their independence of thought and action. We don't have to agree on everything, but we can agree to work towards the freedom of everybody because if we don't, we'll all end up victims of those who value their own wealth and power accumulation more than they value us and our freedom. I hope that you can see that the present state of affairs in this country is unsustainable. Something's going to have to give. Don't let it be your freedom and the freedom of your offspring.
