Society
So, if we know what a hinge is, and how it can rust, then where are the rusty hinges in our society?  I would say the national debt is something of a rusty hinge.  Thats a sytem that seems to not matter because its gotten so absurd.  The elephant in the living room.

Johnny Cash said it best
"St. Peter came and I can't go, I've sold my soul to the company store"

Have we sold our souls to the company store?  How do we get it back?  I know how I want it back.  Free coffee.  I want to be able to walk into starbucks and say "coffee please" and when i hand over my card it deducts it from the federal debt.  I want my money back.  What happens when the government goes bankrupt??  When there is a run on all this money? Will the corporations that has helped it become so bloated come in and save it? or will they say no, and take the money and run also.

I want my money back.  I bought into a society that's broken.  It isn't meeting my needs.  What happens when you buy a hairdryer that isn't as powerful as you thought and it couldn't dry your hair.  Two options, you wait, or return it.  Now, say after waiting for six months (or three decades -nixon) it breaks and starts zapping you. Now you can return it.  But returning it takes too much time.  You just go buy a new more powerful one, this one drys your hair how you would like it too.  But, this more powerful one, when it breaks, it doesn't just zap you, it tries to jump in the tub next time your bathing.  oh shit. what do you do?? How about next time, buy a towel.

Question: What does the hairdryer represent? What does the tub represent?  Read into it and find your own meaning.
