Paranoia
Aug 12, 2011

    Paranoia.  Mass hysteria.  suspect your neighbor.  
Report anything suspicious.  Community is dead.  Our 
social fabric is shredded with no chance for cohesion.  
Divide and conquer is a military strategy yet we squabble 
over petty differences and trust no one, not even our 
neighbor as we draw and fortify boundaries.  Does anyone 
else see this happening in America?
   People tear down rather than build up. Rather than 
work with the best our cohorts have to offer we 
politicize and posture.
   These are dangerous times, not because of terrorism, 
but because of terrorism and our own suspicions.  With 
paranoia we invite the terrorists in.
   The solution is trust.  Each one of us must reach out 
to someone and establish a measure honesty.  We must 
prove our reliability to one another, if there is enough 
time.  The boundaries are steep.  The dogma and 
bureaucratic quagmire may be too overwhelming.  A common 
value system may not exist anymore whereby we can base 
our trust upon.
