I would advise to quit looking backward and face a future of Rat controlled population centers where anything is possible when elections are absolutely controlled by margins appearing out of thin air.
“I would advise to quit looking backward...”
You are missing the whole point my friend...
If governemnt was not so omnipresent, intrusive and powerful as it is the elections you fret about so much would be irrelevant as liberty would prevail over a tyrannical government elected or not.
See how wonderful liberty can be?
