Well said, sir!
Surely you do not believe that such a result can be achieved by universal franchise voting combined with free television "news" and infotainment - do you?
Only if the “infotainment” would be like that which helped cause say, the East German (East Berliners receiving W. Berlin TV with ads for goods, opportunity society vs. the slave State) to create desire for independence. That element of society I think is lost to the self-sufficiency citizens.
If we have gone past the tipping point, and Everyone is on the govt. teat at the “voting” level (not talking about the upper middle layers like biz subsidies which obamao has also been buying off for the machine)-— if that is now true, then this will have to be done off the grid.
Start with the Founding principles, the need for morality as a basic tenet for our Constitution to work, and also the basis for self-sufficiency— not reliant on the expanded “common good”. How many people are left who think and FEEL this way— emotionally and intellectually. There may be more than we think— and I pray that is true. But there must be a plan.
Deo Vindice.
