USA=Third World Country

On so many levels, we already are, what with the increase in poverty, dwindling middle class, lack of manufacturing, etc. But now, it's official. Just like in any third world nation, our utilities seem to be, well, inadequate. St. Louis is having a helluva time and people here in Queens haven't had juice for 4 days. I was talking to one girl from Astoria in the elevator yesterday who said she hadn't had electricity since Wednesday and that sometimes it comes on but it doesn't stay on. Sounds a lot like Iraq, no? Though, our system isn't being messed with by insurgents. It's the corporations that done did us in.

Hmmmm, corporations=insurgents. Fascinating.
