about this story

The institutions of America are slowly eroding the little trust that they have with the American people causing the death of American institutions as we know them. The first photo is what appears to be an empty government building. The second is of a building, the same building as before just for the sake of the argument, with a large crack in it. The crack is in the wall and it weakened the building that we are using to symbolize American institutions. The next photo is of a bug, bugs that get in through the crack of the building, these bugs invading the hollow shell of the building symbolizing the death of American institutions. The 4th photo is of a dead flower, as we mourn the death of our institutions. The final photo is a city lit at night, as we look back at what may have been had the institutions not eroded our trust and eventually died because of it.
