if you're rich america is great because you actively get to be more rich without doing basically anything moreso than other countries but for literally anyone who isn't a literal crook it's a pretty bad place

You follow the path
fitting into an infinite pattern.

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment
before the closure
when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.
