“My concern is that what is happening in France spreads”

Your concern is my hope. People refusing to cooperate with “business as usual” is the only thing I can see that will change the path we are on. Trump’s election, Brexit, and “what is happening in France” are all different ways that people are declining to go along with “business as usual”. Maybe I’m underestimating the disruption that will occur if we change direction and perhaps I shouldn’t be so optimistic, but it’s what I hope for nevertheless.

Remember when the Republican establishment arrogantly told us "if we don't like it, nominate and elect someone else". In our Brave New World, in Europe and the US, we've learned something forsure these past few years. Election results aren't accepted by those who selfishly hold on to power, whatever it takes. Voting to get rid of the controlling force doesn't work. And now there's the situation of troops under the EU flag (ie: Germany) quelling riots in the streets of Paris.

Ahhhhh…..maybe I should calm down and go eat some cake.

Amen and my hope, as well.

Main disruption is of the attempt to turn the entire planet into a real slave colony instead of an incremental virtual one.

If that’s the result, we’ve got this.
