Summary:"There’s a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part; you can’t even passively take part, and you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop.. The transgenics find themselves on the edge of war...again.

Comments are love. Seriously.

My fellow Americans. Today, I do not speak to you as a victorious man; I do not even speak as a man who is your equal. Today, I speak to you in regret, in remorse, as I realize now what we as a people have become.
