Organized crime is not completely dead: Old Hillary is disorganized crime; Trump is more organized. The Brown Shirts are raising their heads and the Socio-Communists are sweeping the youth movement. How wondrous our Nation's calamity!; the anarchists/useful idiots would claim. Enemies everywhere; suspicion, blame, fear, threats, scapegoating; anger and knee jerk emotions; just what our Founding Fathers warned about; yet it is the mode of the day, as the half-informed and uniformed rule the day called Democracy: mob rule mentality replacing a Republic.
We hope for the best, always expect the worst, as suggested in the Federalist Papers. The safe guards are in the Constitution; Publius/ 'The Trio' articulated the consequences of rejecting it. Now we ignore it, because no one reads them.
We are doomed by our own decay of wisdom, and understanding of consequences for our action and in action. Within our lofty ignorance, we dispel the significance of what they said. Hence, we will reap the scraps of history.
