The Payment

Confronted and attacked on all fronts, the patient tries to face the enemy, but more often than not, the battle is lost. Each time a battle is lost, the patient suffers more and the disease causes more harm and damage. A great number of diseases threaten the health and sanity of the patient. Through decades of weakness, leniency and lack of true leadership, the patient may very well be at deaths' door.

The patient's name is Society. The diseases number in the hundreds. The remedies remain elusive. Will the patient recover? Where is Society headed?

Under these circumstances, man's pursuit of happiness is difficult, to say the least. But his search goes on, instinctively, in the face of all obstacles. Society's diseases come second to his search for happiness.
