While on my recent trip to Europe, I was confronted with many perceptions of what Europeans feel about the U,S. The primary question was ”What do you think of being under a dictatorship?” or ”How did you end up under a dictatorship?” I was taken aback as to how to answer this question as it was so loaded. But it set me on a path of inquiry as to how America was willing to give its principles and power away to a handful of power seekers. While meditating on this I picked up my computer and let my higher guidance and fingers do the talking via auto-writing. What came out of it was extremely useful, which is what I speak of in this commentary. I hope you find it useful as well.
