Writing On The Wall

I'm re-reading "The Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Attwood; food for thought when it comes to the idea that things like Sharia Law can't happen in the United States.  Anything is possible when we devalue our personal freedoms for the sake of political expediency.

I'm also recommending the book to anyone who cares to listen to my yammering.  "It's a cautionary tale," I tell them, "read and heed."  "Handmaid's" and "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand stand out as two very important works that should be reviewed by everyone on their way to the revolution; let's make sure which leaders we are following and where they intend to take us.

Such books help with figuring out these things.....if only we take the knowledge and work with it.

For today, Fifty Five is the New Writing On The Wall...."Handmaid's Tale" and "Atlas Shrugged;" It's time we do some heavy reading.
