NoShit....
If America survives this election, which I believe we will, we need to return to reality. The country has gone off the rails since the turn of the century at greater speed each year, partially through inertia but primarily through insane levels of income inequality. Our laws are written by men who do not follow them and reported on by corporations owned by plutocrats who benefit from them.
Meanwhile, we the people descend into superstition and delusion fed with infotainment and entertainment as powerful as soma by the very same plutocrats. We need to...come to grips with a few facts which have been obscured by all this nonsense.
1) Our planetary life support system is in danger because physics and chemistry are real. 2) Men who accumulate capital are not necessarily wiser nor more ethical than anyone else. 3) History did not...end, it continues at breakneck speed as nations continue to compete in geopolitics through war and other means. 4) If treason and other lawbreaking offers financial rewards and goes unpunished, you will only get more of it. 5) The greater the power an individual accrues the...greater the corruption they will be capable of. 6) It takes all kinds of opinions, beliefs and personality types to have a functional society. 7) We can influence government through organizing. 8) Hope is not an effective policy, it is a feeling. 9) Nobody is coming to save us.
Our governmental system was built upon limiting the power of men and religions. It is a product of the enlightenment and lessons learned from Europe's charnel house. It is not a perfect system but seems to me to be the best option we have available. We have very real problems on the near horizon which will only be solved if we approach them in a rational manner.
To do this we need to cut through the emotionalism, avarice and lies which shroud our nation like a toxic blanket. If you want America to prosper instead of a few men, we need truth and justice.
