Molly the Robin
My name is Molly and I am an American robin. As I fly over your country, mine too, I see many things. I learned to think by seeing myself in car door mirrors. I am a mother who has had several broods of hatchlings. A fellow wrote about me in Animal Park. He only got half the story right as most people do because you humans think you are not as bad as you really are or not as good as you think you are. The other half I'll have to tell you myself. Well, that's another story.
I know that birds are good talkers like politicians, even the least capable among them can talk his way around any subject. Reminds me of bluejays who are noisiest but best talkers around.
As I fly around the country it is evident there is much work needed to be done here. From the solitude of school libraries closed during vacations as well as those wonderful public libraries it is clear that your country desperately needs solutions. Those leaders of yours in politics and industry made the decision with major tax incentives some time ago to allow corporations to go abroad to build factories to supply your country with countless products. The result was your country became a virtual service sector economy and almost everything is made overseas from toothpicks to table clothes to televisions.
Hardly anything is made here, except for your cruise missiles, bombs, jet aircraft and navy ships which are very expensive and only a few are employed despite the trillions of dollars expended for the last several decades. Flying over your country I crafted this Handbook of Rebuild and Retool your nation.
