The deeper it is in the complex structure of present society, the less likely it is that light will ever be shown on it. I guess it’s the natural outgrowth from decades of complacency. Our general prosperity inched along with jerks and drips and we were too preoccupied to notice the rotting of the foundation as we built.

I think you're right, PF. Worst part about it is that I don't see where the relief will come from. There's the unusual one or two that seem to have some level of common sense and ... dare I say it ... decency. But, by no means, do they rule the roost ... and usually they get shunned by even their own parties. And, our media doesn't help much. Seems like truth and itegrity have deserted them, too. I remember a time when they tried to tell you the way it was ... and not the way their editors wanted it to be. 
Hmmmm ... does that mean if we don't know where we're going, we stand a pretty good chance of getting there?
