The old foe of separation still runs rampant in a game-playing society. A belief in the game suggests there is no relationship between the hoodwinked and the deceiver. The robber barons of today’s mortgage fraud might have believed they got away with millions, but the tanking of our economy devalues all they stole. Nothing can break that inextricable bond between us all. Consequences can be delayed, maybe even softened, but not avoided. If one goes up, we can all rise. But if many fall, the height of the summit will be diminished.
