America - Going Nowhere Fast

TREADMILL, USA

If you do not know where you are going, every road will get you nowhere.

THE WELCOME

Welcome to Treadmill, USA, - where most Americans now live. I’ll bet you had no clue… but if you live in America, that’s exactly where you’ve been for the last few years, and that’s precisely where you are right now: on a treadmill, going nowhere.

We all know what happens on a treadmill. You walk and walk and walk and get nowhere. You walk and walk - slowly, quickly - it really doesn’t matter, you’re going nowhere. You go through all the motions, but you’re always in the same place and going nowhere. And so it is in Treadmill, USA.

In all honesty, Treadmill, USA has an unusual glitch. As you walk, you surely go nowhere with regularity, but sometimes, in fact more often than you’d like, you actually go backwards! In Treadmill, USA, our communal home, you can walk and walk and walk in what appears to be a forward gait, but you actually can travel back in time. Oddly, you can end up in a place that was, but shouldn’t be.

But that’s Treadmill for you. So let’s take a closer look.

1. Kind of reminds me of the sixties, the underground press.
Be patient, it's like a bad marriage, and we are all
still pretending that everything is fine ...
