I don't believe anyone knows what path we are headed down at this time in history. I know this much, the group that has been running the country for 40 yrs, giving power to TPTB, is waning. I am one of them. Everyday, someone I know is in the obits. It is up the 30 somethings now to decide which way we go. How will they judge our attempts at war, trade deals,recessions,job and wage stagnation, no retirement plans. Not good I think. I am voting for Bernie.

As many have said I may not agree with you. But I spent many years in the military and am will to die to allow you that right.
AND I'm even willing to listen to your ideas. I have even been know to change my mind once in a while. But I don't hink so on this subject. Capitalism may not be the best system in the world, but having lived/worked in socialist run/ or leaning countries I'd rather take my chances on that then Bernie's ideas.
Promoting the well being of all humanity around the world... That's the motto the Rockefeller foundation has in it's front page...
Chicken Little focuses on a little chicken who overreacts and causes a big commotion over nothing. The moral of the basic story is to not overreact and don't believe everything you're told. The story revolves around mass hysteria as the chicken little continuously says, "The sky is falling!".
The moral is to not panic. Chicken Little thought the sky was falling when an acorn fell on her head, and was terrified for no reason. If she'd been calmer and more rational she would not have been afraid.
The moral of chicken little is to always keep your head and don't panic and have courage. The world is full of people who become alarmed at every provication but it doesn't mean anything bad will happen.
"Chicken Little" is folktale about a chicken who believes the sky is falling when an acorn falls on his head. There are many versions of the tale but basically Chicken Little, a not too bright chick, retells his story to the other animals including Goosey Loosey, Turkey Lurkey, Cocky Lockey and Ducky Lucky.
One of the animals, Foxy Loxy, takes advantage of the hysteria and reinforces the erroneous message that the world is coming to an end. Of course the beliefs that caused the hysteria were based on supposition and ignorance which led to fear and hysteria. Which brings us to FOX News and the messages they repeat.
