As many of you know, TMR has lots of friends who are police officers and lawyers now, so we don't get into gratuitous bashing of those professions. On the other hand, this blog was started because of a still-unresolved case of adultery that ended with a triple murder - that no one's gone to prison for yet - so this FRONTLINE expose' of, both, investigative and judicial fuck-ups kinda rang true for us somehow. And, because our personal story of such evil is wrapped up in the world-wide fraud of NewAge, so did this:
"God wanted us to have it." Sure.
As usual, it started in the '60s and nobody was willing to ask the hard questions, but - most importantly - those living through the '60s were unwilling to ask any hard questions of themselves. Which is also how Barack Obama became president, and the Mortgage Crisis got out of hand, and,...Oh well, you get the picture:
Bernie Madoff was the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi/The Secret of Wall Street - except he got caught.
We're convinced all the fraud that's happening (and has happened) will eventually be revealed, and this illogical post-Boomer period will one day be given a historical name. But, until then, all we're left to do is endure and watch and wait - while protecting our own asses as best we can - and hoping the name we've given to our resistance will one day be found as adequate enough to the task.

The Macho Response
