Life in the United States Is Becoming More Outrageous by the Day

Ten years ago, if you had surveyed Americans as to the viability of selling off public lands to for-profit corporations, people would have laughed in your face.  “That’s an outrageously stupid idea, as it strikes a blow to the core of who we are as a people,” you would have heard people say.

Now, just the blink of an eye later, it’s happening right in front of us.

I guess the word “outrageous” is relative. What was outrageous 10 years ago makes perfectly good sense today.
