Fox News freaks me the heck out. I sometimes think that is the face of most of America and that freaks me out even more. When you really start to think about it all the incoming crisis will overwhelm you.
Here's a go at it: Climate crisis, energy crisis (oil, etc), food crisis (look at what we are doing/have done to our food), water crisis, infrastructure crisis, health care crisis (like we ever had any), prison crisis, economic crisis (that we didn't fix), mental health crisis (can be lumped in with prison crisis, unfortunately), education crisis, social security, leadership crisis (you see any leaders in DC? Me, either)... and I'm sure you can come up with a few more. (the dearest crisis to my heart is a spiritual one; the Republicans have no more right to 'represent' God than a fox a chicken coop.)
When you think about everything going wrong, it makes you wonder how we all are able to ignore every single issue? Or, how we are incapable of seeing even one issue without one party or another's blinders? It drives me crazy that we do nothing about anything, unless it involves somebody else getting something we don't think they deserve. TSA Xrays and groping? No problem. Healthcare for everyone? Uproar.
