We've been taken over by foreign invaders.

Now I know how American Indians felt as they were herded onto reservations and given tribal "leaders" on the take to do what Uncle Sugar wanted done: Starve them to death, brainwash their children, sterilize them, take all motivation to achieve away from them from cradle to grave.

It's what happens when you don't execute every communist statist immediately when they pop up out of the university septic tanks.
Now, we're all on the reservation, just waiting to be assigned a number for orderly termination so the Chinese owners can strip our gold teeth from our corpses and raise fat children in our former farmlands.
