denial it takes to remain blind. It's almost a relief when you let go and face facts.

However, with more and more people finally wiping their eyes and waking up, I have faith that it will end. Signs of the awakening are coming from Greece right now. Because all of this wasn't just an American problem, it was a Global problem.

Nothing lasts forever, especially when the greedy and powerful become insatiable and as a result, more and more oppressive, more frightened of losing what they have taken. When they begin to go after Whistle Blowers and journalists and desperately try to silence anyone who dares to point out the facts, you know that even they know that holding on to such wrongfully achieved power is going to a very difficult thing to do.
