The vast majority of Americans support the president's decision to set America on an imperial course. There is very little room for dissent, and those who do dissent are often witchhunted, either by the government or by vigilantes. There are occasional reports of lynchings, but only rarely are they verified, and there is never a punishment leveled. But it is more complex than this.

Any sort of native resistance in America is very far underground, though it is known that it has most root in the military and the mutant teams, for they are the ones who bear the brunt of the country's will for safety. There are continual rumours as to why it is not punished and driven out, as it has been in most of continental America, but the truth is far from being found.

The old political parties are gone; to symbolise America's determination to rise from the ashes of their capitol, the new politicians are all members of the same party, and they don't need a name - because naming something gives you power over it. They hold all the power.

Almost all people agree with them. Without coercion, without fear. They have been told that in this age, we do not need to lose another American life, and they believe it and they support it, and they are not being coerced to state that belief.

Everyone else is hiding underground, waiting to gather enough strength.
