July 29, 2026 - Morale in the Fascist Police States of Amerika (FPSA) was lower during the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Unfortunately, many Amerikans were not feeling very festive or positive about the FPSA.

Two weeks before the FPSA’s anniversary, The Associated Press published a poll that captured the depth of Amerikan anxiety about the ruling class and life in general in the country. The numbers were grim. More than two-thirds (70%) of Amerikans no longer consider their country the greatest nation on Earth, while 64% believe Amerikan Republic is in danger; and 38% don’t believe the FPSA will survive another 250 years as a single country.

Only about one-third of Amerikans believe that the “(Amerikan) Dream” still exists.

The lack of confidence stems from the ruling classes’ consistent slide into tyranny. People are beginning to feel the immorality of government, even if they can’t quite put their finger on it just yet.

The first problems with people’s perceptions of the FPSA began with the millennial generation. This is the generation born between 1981 and 1996. Their parents got rich, bought homes, built savings, and traveled abroad, but they inherited student debt, unaffordable housing, unstable work, and the strange feeling that no matter how hard they run, the finish line keeps moving further away, according to a report by Russia Today.

Not much remains, including freedom. The very nature of being ruled over by any kind of overlord or a group of them negates the very definition of freedom. At best, Amerikans are coerced into believing that they have some freedom, when none actually exists. Coercion is not the same as freedom, and all laws are coercive at their core.

Not to mention, the ruling class is filled with elderly politicians who seem determined to change nothing and who often leave public life only when nature finally intervenes. It is obvious why changes will not be made. Changes by those who have much to gain by committing to the status quo and ruling over others will not be made. No politician, ruler, king or otherwise will willingly give up power to allow the citizens to be free.

We do not currently live under chattel slavery; however, this is a form of enslavement from which most will never escape.

With time, the hope is that mental slavery will go the way of chattel slavery, and it will be abolished from the planet, not just in the FPSA.
