You wouldn't believe the crater it leaves behind. I think we can safely leave the M off of Mass.

nobody has mentioned shock & awe. The collateral damage is much higher than they show on C-SPAN.

You know, just saying "corruption" would have worked just as well, and the confusion would be less.
Please edit appropriately in your mind.
