I BELIEVE, that our government no longer cares about the people of the USA, any of them, Dem or Rep.
I believe that indeed corruption has taken over the very heart of this country in business and government. I believe that our elected officials need to be removed and all benefits, health care and retirement need to be taken away or greatly reduced. I believe that when our new governing body is in place, they make a working mans wage with a working mans insurance and retirement. Our population of illegals has better welfare benefits than some of our service men and women. I believe that our active duty service people should all get an wage increase effective immediately, and they receive health care benefits for the rest of their lives if they fulfill the terms of service they signed up for. They are the ones working for this country, not the house, not senate. Our government should, in my opinion almost be willing to volunteer. Special interests should no longer be special, they should be shut down for ever, including all lobbysit. Anyone here illegally needs to jump through the hoops to get legal within 15 days or get out. I believe that there are laws being broken by the WH and we do have recourse somehow. We must protect our constitution which is being torn to shreds. Where are the lawyers? I am tired of not sleeping at night due to watching our country fold in on itself. I am scarred.
A coup d'état (pronounced /ˌkuːdeɪˈtɑː/, us dict: kōō′·dā·tâ′), or coup for short, is the sudden unconstitutional deposition of a legitimate government, usually by a small group of the existing state establishment — typically the military — to replace the deposed government with another, either civil or military. A coup d’état succeeds when the usurpers establish their legitimacy if the attacked government fail to thwart them, by allowing their (strategic, tactical, political) consolidation and then receiving the deposed government’s surrender; or the acquiescence of the populace and the non-participant military forces.
Typically, a coup d’état uses the extant government’s power to assume political control of the country. In Coup d'État: A Practical Handbook, military historian Edward Luttwak says: "A coup consists of the infiltration of a small, but critical, segment of the state apparatus, which is then used to displace the government from its control of the remainder”, thus, armed force (either military or paramilitary) is not a defining feature of a coup d’État.
In left-wing discourse, 'Blanquism' refers to a conception of revolution generally attributed to Louis Auguste Blanqui which holds that socialist revolution should be carried out by a relatively small group of highly organised and secretive conspirators. Having taken power, the revolutionaries would then use the power of the state to introduce socialism or communism. It is considered a particular sort of 'putschism' - that is, the view that political revolution should take the form of a putsch or coup d'etat.
I believe Lenin thought that this idea was madness - it could not be achieved. But I think we're watching it now.
Two are living in the White House.

Take care of yourself, first. Get some rest. This country’s going to need your help.
Hilarious. Looks like my lab and my grand dog!!
I agree with your assessment. Now what? I mean, historically speaking, what’s the solution, what comes next (successfully)?
Chris Dodd is doing that now...rolling the FED and FDIC and the "Regulatrory Oversight of Banking" into a Su-per- Agency;
