"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book has been
rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street and
building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And that
process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has
stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is
always right."
George Orwell. "1984."

Wow!
Yeah. WOW. Orwell was spot on!
Most of what Orwell wrote has come to pass. It is very alarming that at this point in our history(the history of our country) we are at an impasse with almost half of the people in the country. This has been aggravated by those elected to run the country of and for the people with the latter phrase not happening. It is said that power corrupts and perhaps the checks and balances put into play by our country's founders worked at that time however they are NOT working now. Every day the chasm grows wider and the rhetoric more fierce I fear that soon it will erupt into a civil war, Then and only then will Orson Welles 1984 not be applicable. Until then, the schools will be re-writing history, and big brother will watch and arrest.
