Those working hard against our corrupt, gilded and immovable political class have one of the most difficult jobs imaginable.
Our national moral lens has become splattered with the backwash of political expedience and blood. Barely a day goes by without another ethical outrage being exposed. Government institutions, at all levels, are failing to protect the inalienable human rights that formed the basis of our nation. These rights and freedoms were carefully called out in the Bill of Rights so that they could nurture a just and equitable society within any local political environment.
And to those who rationalize the disgraces of our nation as the "new post-constitutional, corporate sponsored reality", there aren't enough words to express the disgust reserved for you.
