Until we get some representatives with the courage of founding fathers, I am not sure how we beat this back short of some level of physical resistance which results in the government resorting to imprisonment or violent suppression of those who resist. Even then, I doubt the will of the Congress to act. I have a very real sense of trepidation that our children will experience the same risk and strife as those in the Revolutionary and Civil wars.
Why do you need to depend on elected officials? All of us MUST have the courage to stand up to this monster we have allowed to overrun us. Our founding fathers risked their health, their wealth and even their very lives to gain our freedom from oppression. Are we so enslaved by our creature comforts that we would not do the same?
If we are not willing to keep our freedoms, then we deserve the chains of slavery.
