The Price of Our Freedom

When I was looking for a new place to call home after moving into the area, I surprised myself by not finding a place before I moved to the state. It’s kind of an old habit of mine that I picked up when I was couch surfing during my early 20’s and unfortunately this time around I was stuck crashing in my car for a month! I thought I was going to be able to find a place a lot easier than I did but when everything was starting to look kind of grim I came across the Waterford apartments in a local listing magazine.

It wasn’t exactly what I was looking for but it was definitely better than nothing. It’s kind of crazy how much apartments have gone up in price, as well as the general cost of living, but amazingly our wages are somehow staying the same, Huh! You’d think that there would be some kind of conspiracy going down to keep us working hard, enslaved to the wage so we’re too busy to question the crazy things that are going on in the world even at this moment. Lucky that we have the Internet, right?

Oh, that’s right, the Federal Government is trying it’s best to split up the Internet while the NSA does everything thatthey can to bug it! Ha! Some kind of ‘free’ world we live in, right? It’s like the American government really doesn’t care about the people and instead just wants absolute control and power. I guess that’s the kind of ‘change’ we voted in, isn’t it Mr. President? At least I can say I’ve got a roof over my head unlike so many in the world right now but who knows if that means that I am actually a free man or not.
