Americans have become complacent and slow to recognize what has been going on right under their noses. Much of this can be blamed on having to work very hard to pay taxes, the mortgage and other family expenses, which leaves most of us very little time to stay on top of what is happening in our national and local centers of power. Our crap-weasel politicians know this and rely on it to keep their positions at the public trough safe.

With the internet, all of that is changing and has been changing over the past 5 years or so. Around here, I now see people charged up and discussing issues they previously always ignored. Now, not so much time has to be spent sifting out the truth among all of the spin put out by the politicians. Very hard to hide the truth these days, although they're still trying.

Be patient and stay positive.

Well stated. You are much more eloquent than I.

I, also, think the tide is turning in regards to average citizens holding our elected politicians feet to the flame. The pols also see it happening and IMO, they are getting nervous. Perhaps this accounts for their accelerated "power grab".

Thank you, panaxanax

One highly critical aspect you are overlooking is that this same government educates (y)our children into their collectivist ideology. Now they can't fix the roads or teach math or reading and writing but making our children ignorant of our history and legal responsibilities and rights, they do very well.

I urge everyone to read the Underground History of American Education:
johntaylorgatto.com/
The entire book is available online. Written by a former national Teacher of the Year, I assure you it will explain more than you want to know about what you are actually up against regarding the demise of this nation.

Which is why the buzz has already begun about how the internet has problems and we may need a new one. It will be taken over and severely restricted to commerce and acceptable content in the future. Without controlling information flow, there cannot be an appropriately maliable collective corporatist society.

What's the good American matra?

Buy buy buy
