Matt Taibbi has an interesting book out "The Divide: American Injustice in the Age of the Wealth Gap."

There are issues in the US beyond just the seizing of assets, the question is how do we fix it so that everyone can prosper? The idea of the United States is still awesome, but have we as a country ever come close to the ideal? Is it possible to reach the ideal?

It might not be possible, to reach the ideal. But what I currently see is, that justice, freedom and democracy are loosing very fast in all the world around us and fastest in those countries that once where the first democratic nations.

It is totally frightening and a bad sign for all humanity.
