Please see this video. If you think that it isn't true. The first part is this guy talking (he is kinda annoying) but the second half is Ezera Taft Benson (sec of agriculture back in the 50's) He is talking about a trip that Nikita Khrushchev (1st sec of the Communist party) told him on a trip to the US. It is the exact description of what is happening to us. EXTREMELY INTERESTING AND TRUE.
