Whoever wrote this, and whoever he quotes are idiots.
The vast majority of real Americans are not helpless, ignorant victims who exist at all at the pleasure of government. Those are little more than dumb animals normally viewed as pets.
The millions of past Americans who created the country, now on the verge of collapse, relied on themselves, on family and community.
Quite successfully, I might add.
Today, voters need only be warm and breathing (mostly.)
To avert total collapse as a culture, voters need much higher qualifications.
