Is America Headed for "The Hunger Games?"


I discovered this article through "Instapundit."

The article deals with concerns about the elite government.
The media tends to neglect truthful facts when investigating serious events. An article is cited in which there is a failure to bring up the subject of Hillary Clinton's testimony about what happened in Benghazi.

The government is compared with “The Hunger Games.” There is a strong central government that sees the rest of us as uneducated. Many “uneducated or undereducated” people today watch reality shows. The author of “The Hunger Games” intended the “games” to parallel today's reality shows. Many people see the government as simply a reality show.



Who will be brave and speak up? Why can’t we just tell the truth? The reason is that we don’t want to offend anybody. This article relates Dr. Carson’s solution to healthcare from this week’s prayer breakfast. He stood against “Obamacare” with the President present.

It's saying something that California has to stop requiring eighth graders to take algebra.  As we dumb-down education, it dumbs down society and it gives us a greater gap between the people and the “elite” in Washington D.C. 

Our country could be headed for the world of “The Hunger Games.”
