Excellent article by Chris Hedges on the state of our nation.

"The right has retreated into Christian fascism and a celebration of the gun culture. The left, knocked off balance by decades of fierce state repression in the name of anti-communism, is struggling to rebuild and define itself. Popular revulsion for the ruling elite, however, is nearly universal. It is a question of which ideas will capture the public’s imagination."

This person could not possibly be insightful, since he completely fails to comprehend what left and right are.
