How America Has Advanced In 60 Years
When I was 3 and 4 and 6 we went back and forth from Boston to Los Angeles a lot. On route 66. We had Italian problems. We worked them out. A few weeks ago I took a road trip from Los Angeles to Austin. Route 66 was still visible in its original form off to the right, on occasions. Here is what has changed in America in 60 years: the road is a little bit wider. Reciprocating engines are also still inside the vehicle used to move you. Gasoline is also still the fuel. You also still cannot leave the road and scoot above the surface ten miles thataway to explore some fascinating piece of barren and uninhabited scenery. And it is also still barrren and fascinating and uninhabited. Because it is also still very hard to get there in a car. Even though at least you can go - legally - 30 miles an hour faster on that road. And you cannot get there to that interesting thing way over there off the road in an air vehicle because - even if there was such a thing - the FCC would not allow it. In private hangars and garages all over America are viable air buggies that will wisk you above the surface at 100 miles an hour with no problem that cannot be flown. It's against the law. Thanks government: keeping America stagnant, on the road, and in two dimensions, for over 60 years. And I can vouch for that from personal experience. Then, and now. Nothing has fucking changed. It's still fucked up and primitive. AND Obama is focused on you keeping an eye on that tire pressure for when gas goes to 10 dollars a gallon a week after he swears in. Which WILL LIKELY keep you from even using the primitive road. Welcome to the future of America. Don't you wish you weren't in it? You probably won't be if you're White. Or Christian. And definitely won't be if you're both. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
