Remember when you were a little kid, and your mom or dad let you win at games and such? Well, we are no longer 'letting' our opposition 'win', and it's beginning to tell. They have nowhere to go to find someone who will tell them they are right. And they are beginning to doubt...things.
The 'bosses' aren't there for them any more.
There are other connections to other unhealthy segments of society, that we have yet to find and incorporate.
