Voices: Intellectually deficient
It has long been known that through a mass news media with everything to sell and nothing to tell, there would be a steady dumbing down of America. You could literally educate the intellect right out of them, but even I never thought it could get this stupid.
To spend millions on a new dog shelter is bad enough, but to throw homeless people out of a shelter for lack of that same money is beyond belief. If the pen is no longer mightier than the sword, and we are no longer capable of pure thought then revert back, revert back to animal instinct, doesn’t something about this just feel wrong?
In all segments of society, there are the haves and the have-nots, but it’s getting pretty bad when the dogs are the haves and the people are the have-nots.
