If it holds true-- the state is territory-on-a-map-- as the name is what's read. To have conflicting ideas about how municipality should be run-- is where we're are, now. On the one hand, cities are but roads, bridges, and structure; when economy plays-a-hand in it-- everything then has monetary-value. A lame-excuse to commercialize land, buildings, and mobiles.
To each, they own something, which has been the American-dream' since it's birth-- but never really earned any of it. Some financial-transaction took place-- and now your the proud owner of some place. Even the cars have price-stickers on them-- to which all the bad-drivers can finance.
