22. Americans are still too comfortable
and still too trusting of what they're fed by corporate media. When a draft comes knocking, when they start to feel more than just a pinch of fiscal and personal discomfort from outsourcing/gas prices/tighter gov't control, they will begin to holler.

Because we no longer have the media on our side, or at least at nuetral center, a good deal of folks who just roll along in their own little lives won't become outraged until the ballbat of what is happening hits them hard on the head. Let's hope our country can survive the wait!
