MOUSELAND [WORDS]
It's a story of a place called Mouseland. Mouseland was a place where all the little mice lived and played, were born and died, and they lived much as you and I do. They even had a Parliament. And every four years they had an election. And every time on election day all the little mice used to go to the ballot box and they used to elect a government. A government made up of big, fat, black cats. Now, I'm not say anything against the cats. They were nice fellows. They conducted the government with dignity. They passed good laws...that is laws that were good for cats. But the laws that were good for cats weren't very good for mice. One of the laws said that mouse holes had to be big enough so a cat could get his paw in. Another law said that mice could only travel at certain speeds, so cats were getting breakfast without too much physical effort. All the laws were good laws for cats. But oh they were hard on the mice. Life was getting harder and harder. When the mice couldn't put up with it any more, they decided something had to be done about it. So they went en masse to the polls. They voted the black cats out, and they put in the white cats. The white cats, the white cats had put up a terrific campaign. They said all that Mouseland needs is more vision. They said the trouble with Mouseland is those round mouse holes you got. If you put us in, we'll establish square mouse holes. And they did. And the square mouse holes were twice as big as the round mouse holes. And now the cat could get both his paws in. And life was tougher that ever. And when they couldn't take that anymore they voted the white cats out and put the black ones in again. Then they went back to the white cats, then to the black cats. They even got one government made up of cats with spots on them. They were cats that tried to make a noise like a mouse, but they ate like a cat. You see my friends, the trouble wasn't with the color of the cats, the trouble was that they were cats. And because they were cats they naturally looked after cats instead of mice. Presently there came along one little mouse who had an idea. My friends, watch out for the little fellow with an idea. And he said to the other mice, "Look fellas, why do we keep on electing a government made up of cats? Why don't we elect a government made up of mice?" Oh, they said, he's a Bolshevik! So they put him in jail. But I want to remind you that you can lock up a mouse or a man...but you can't lock up an idea.

P T S D [WORDS]
Lowest form of nationalism is bumper sticker patriotism.
Armchair warriors and their yellow ribbon pride
Bandwagon bolstering a blood-soaked lie
But it’s an old story.
More active duty personnel died by their own hand than combat in 2012.
In September 2014 there were 2.7 million American veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. In 2018 that number only continues to grow. This compared to the 2.6 million veterans who fought in Vietnam.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder:
Prevalence at 14 percent. PTSD—among male and female soldiers aged 18 or older returning from Iraq and Afghanistan—rates ranged from 9 percent to 31 percent one year after deployment. Vietnam veterans also report high lifetime rates of PTSD, ranging from 10 percent to 31 percent. PTSD is the third most prevalent psychiatric diagnosis among veterans using VA hospitals.
50 percent of those with PTSD do not seek treatment.
Out of the half who do seek treatment, they are routinely met with inadequate services.
Despite belief to the contrary, veteran-specific benefits fall short of meeting the needs of veterans and their families, many of whom struggle to meet basic needs even with Department of Veterans Affairs support. More than 3.9 million veterans live paycheck to paycheck—meaning their family incomes are less than twice the federal poverty level, or less than $50K for a family of four.
Blind bumper sticker patriot
So loud when they’re sending kids to die.
Where are you now?
Yeah, yeah. . .Support the Troops. . .
. . .at least until the get home.
