Hong Kong, April 6th. The “American Century” and its “New World Order” ended with the passing of the 1990s. The American Dream, however, is for many just that. They keep waking up. For others it has become a nightmare that has to be confronted at the dawn of the new millennium. Those who think America is a sweet dream better wake up now! Otherwise they will also start waking up in a nightmarish cold sweat, or worse – not. Chaos is no longer just a theory. “Everything under heaven is chaos and the situation is excellent” is a timely ancient Chinese proverb. The identity of the 43rd president was left dangling in a constitutional, legal and political twilight zone in Florida in 2000. A political never-never land.
A prelude to the dangling steel girders of the World Trade Center and Pentagon. Both were the result of duopolistic bipartisan anarchy that includes the nation’s Supreme Court and nepotistic American political dynasties duking it out in Florida and Washington’s legal and political swamps. Security disparity between career politicians and working people is as wide as the income disparity. The widest it’s been since the crash of 1929, and it continues to grow. The ranks of the insecure and poor are growing. Fear and unemployment are on the rise. The poor feel more threatened and get poorer while the rich get safer and richer. The total net worth of the top one percent of Americans is now equal to the total net worth of the bottom ninety percent of the population. The sweeping language of the Patriot Act that became law in the wake of 9/11 swept away many hard fought-for civil liberties. A good reason to wake up and protect what is left. The New World Order America advocates and leads is a disorderly mess - thanks to career politicians. We the Apathetic People have to clean it up. The United States of Apathy desperately needs a maid. One that is custom made.
Globalization to many is the equivalent to Americanization. Whatever happens in America today has geopolitical ramifications. The diversity of the American mosaic society, thanks to the endless waves of immigrants that flood America, is making the country a congested two-way super highway with a wide off ramp for those kicked out – and a narrow on ramp for those let in.
