20s wasteland: Patriot.
Are you a patriotic person? You may think so, but your wrong! lol jk, but you might think you're not and you are. Come in, lets cut this foreplay, and get to the sex.

Well I just lost my medical coverage. So now I’m unemployed and uncovered. It feels freeing in an odd way. I could complain about the job market and that I don’t have coverage because I can’t find work. Or I could tell you that I should have medical coverage because as a citizen of Earth 2008 we should all have it. But that just leads into the same old fights. Maybe I’m just in a more hopeful mood lately, I think the Joker in me is settling in and I’m enjoying the chaos of America right now. The president, the government, the economy, the justice system, the university system, the military. See everything in this country is breaking down and that’s just great. We are evolving beyond the things we were and the things we had, this is revolution, and revolution is never pretty. By the way I don’t think we’re breaking down because we suck we’re breaking down because we’re too lazy to create new shit. America is like a car that’s lost it’s passenger window, but instead of fixing the window you put newspaper over it, then you create comities and organizations and think-tanks charged with the task of maintaining the newspaper-window. America does suck though now that we’re at it. But most places suck, you know? People always prove America’s worth by telling you everything that’s wrong with other places, but that’s hardly proof of our greatness. We have no industry here, yet we have all these problems. We need to take the problems and let them birth new industry. Thus new jobs, and new money.
Patriotism will never work; it’s a silly and stupid tactic of inspiration. It’s like the O’Doyle family from “Billy Madison”, constantly shouting “O’Doyle rules!” Americans saying “we’re number one” doesn’t say that much, of course Americans would say they’re number one, there is clearly a bias in stating the place you live is best out of all places. Of course saying all this does make me Patriotic…hhmm.
