We are in a globalist monopoly economy and they can and do engineer opinions and attitudes. With more ferocity in the past decade and past 6 months.
I understand the reality and it is why I believe that the Republic is over since some time in the last ten years. We are in transition to something else. Only a small portion of the population has any familiarity with history which has not been taught for generations nor has the Constitutional System been taught. It is not part of tradition for far more than half of those now living. That is fatal for this system.
