Americans are the proverbial frogs in the pot. They've been ratcheting up the heat over the last 30 years, the first signs of danger are well past, now its 300mm people being held captive by abusive leaders and insanely greedy profiteers.

This entire story exemplifies everything wrong with the USA and its form of corporate run government. Socialize the risks, privatize the profits and foremost, let the foxes not only guard the henhouse, give it to them!

World, if you're listening. We need a pepperoni pizza.
