Half of America knows what Obama and the present administration represents: America has no representation.

I read somewhere that elections are a proxy for civil war. In a conflict between two groups of people, it's likely that the side that would win an election would be the side that would win a civil war. So have the election instead of the war and everybody comes out ahead.

Such a proxy only works, however, as long as things remain civilized, and so long as (1) both sides realize that if they don't remain civilized a real civil war could result, and (2) neither side makes overly aggressive move to pre-checkmate the opponent should civil war become necessary.

Well in this dynamic we have in Ameica today, its the government ( both Dems and Republicans) against the people. Half the people know this fact and the other half do not, thanks to the MSM and their non coverage of the issues.

This dynamic will get so extended that AMerica will become a tinder box, realizing thhat we do not really have a goverment, just a huge tax boondoggle which fleeces the people.

And people will not pay the government much longer,because they did not want a 14 trillion dollar budget designed to line the pockets of the political elite and their patronaged dependants.

How many will say," I am not paying for that, I told them NOT to do it!"

And when the government starts coming after people , what happens then?
