"America slowly collapses into a police state."

Slowly? They analyze the contents of your body before you can get hired for most jobs and run a credit check. You had an illness and couldn't pay your bills? Too bad.

Desirable citizens and undesirable ones.

I lived under commumism - crime was rampant. Just because they didn't report it, doesn't mean it wasn't there.

What really worries me, Americans re-elected Bush (not that the alternative would've been better). Means they don't understand what's happening to them.

If 23 million Americans played online poker and 5% are winning players, there's a million Americans trying to enter the work market or at least trying to get supplementary income. Good luck.
