Here’s some Poetry from our Young Friend Cecilia, …and starting with a longish quote, (emphasis mine):
I wish I could make patriotism into a pill
And force all to take
In order to –
…overcome the urge to give or take bribe
…overcome the need in harvesting praises for no work done
…cut off strings of whom-you-know
…banish all forms of modeling corruption
…and partake in mending the heart…
…

Agreed, as long as it’s real patriotism and not the fake, show-off kind. We have many fake Patriots in the States right now….

“Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel” Bob Dylan.
Today in our country the corrupt bribe takers are shouting the loudest about patriotism. The poor are helpless as they get no share in the resources of the country. Patriotism comes naturally when every citizen has a means of livelihood.
