I would just like to ask, what do we do now?

We have almost no chance of changing what American has become. We can hope for tomorrow, that we could vote these people out, but I think we see now that we are outnumbered. We've lost control of our schools, media, and now our government.

I remember in 2008 we all thought that with the elections in 2010 we would rise back up and right the course ... didn't happen. We said the same thing in 2012, and again, the same result.

We can keep kicking the can down the road and pretend that we will prevail with our votes, but, let's face it, that isn't going to happen.

I am not being a defeatist, I am being realistic, we got complacent and now we are in the minority and getting smaller every day.

Any ideas ... how do we change this?

You are not being defeatist at all. I am not sure we can change this. We are at a point in history where events will take on a life of their own, and, unfortunately, where things will get much worse before they get better. I have heard all the usual ideas like secession, migration, and so on. I don't think these are realistic.

The one thing that keeps going through my mind is that we have one real source of power left. The millions of people who think like us have the power to bring this country to its knees, to end the massive welfare state (I am including things like government bureaucracies and universities in this list). It would take a spark, a point where these millions of people recognize that self-preservation is no longer enough. But if the millions of truckers, small business owners, farmers, and professionals, were to all go on strike, to simply stockpile and retire (temporarily), the economy would implode, and take with it the gravy train.

Such things are extreme, and cannot really be organized in advance, but it is the thing that I keep looking at. As I said, it would take *something* to happen to galvanize the believers in America. It would be dangerous, and I cannot in good conscience advocate it. But I would say it the only realistic way by which we could really change things.
